Analysis

Weak and unloved

KPS AG is weak and unloved: below-average business metrics and a price that reflects that disappointment.

Valuation data is not available for this company.

The trajectory is mixed and the balance sheet is fragile. The company scores 3/20 on our value-creation score: not creating value.

What to watch: A large part of the company's book value is the price paid for past acquisitions. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
