Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Linedata Services S.A. sits in the middle of our grid: average quality, average price, no obvious signal in either direction.

On valuation, the picture is expensive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 30.2×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year.

Growth is tepid; the safety picture is adequate. The company scores 8/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value. Analyst sentiment is cautious.

Flags to be aware of: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. 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.
