Key financials Hera’s profitability metrics are moderate: ROE 11.6%, ROA 3.3%, ROCE 8.8%. Margins are tight: gross 18.9%, operating 7.0%, net 3.8%. Revenue declined -18.2% while EPS grew 0.1%. Balance sheet shows leverage (Debt/Equity 1.21) and interest coverage of 5.14.

Stock health Quality score is average (50.0), but income strength is high (91.0) with a 4.2% dividend yield. Momentum is mixed: 12m +2.62%, but -10.20% from 52w high; RSI(14) at 51.30 indicates neutral momentum.

Price vs fair value The stock trades at a **discount** of 32.10% to our fair-value estimate of 5.06 and a **discount** of 18.02% to the 12-month target of 4.52. - Trading at a steep discount to both fair value and analyst target (fair-value estimate 5.06, analyst target 4.52) - Low revenue growth (-18.2%) despite stable EPS growth (0.1%) - Moderate profitability (ROE 11.6%, net margin 3.8%) - High income score (91.0) supports dividend appeal (yield 4.2%)

Looking forward Forward P/E of 11.36 and EV/EBITDA of 7.35 suggest valuation support, but growth (Growth score 37.6) and momentum (41.2) remain weak. Debt levels (Net debt/EBITDA 3.06) warrant monitoring.
