Stock health Quality score is weak (44/100), growth is weak (38/100), strength is very weak (13/100), but income is strong (72/100). Piotroski F-Score 3/9 and Altman Z 0.33 signal elevated risk. Dividend yield is 3.4% with a 69% payout ratio.

Price vs fair value The stock trades at a **discount of 12.80%** to the analyst mean target of 91.95. - Analyst mean target implies 13% upside versus current price (Valuation anchor). - Forward P/E 19.46 and PEG 3.00 suggest moderate valuation but high growth expectations. - Net margins at 15% and ROE at 9% trail sector peers. - Debt/Equity at 1.61 and interest coverage at 2.48 raise credit concerns. - Income score of 72/100 supports the discount via reliable dividends.

Looking forward Forward P/E of 19.46 and PEG of 3.00 imply growth expectations are already reflected in the price. Weak profitability and high leverage limit upside unless operational improvements materialize.
