Top 10 Stock Teleperformance Strong Buy Recommendation
How to read the ranks
For every stock, we judge its performance against its peers and rank it on a scale of 1 to 100. The higher the rank, the better the stock performs than its peers. And, we do this for six investment strategies:
Value - shows how good of a value the stock is. Green is "inexpensive"; red is "expensive".
Growth - shows a company's growth potential. Green is "high growth" expected; red is "tough times ahead".
Safety - relates to the amount of debt a company has. Green is low debt level; red is high debt level.
Combined Financial - this isn't an average of the first three ranks but rather a consolidated view across several financial indicators. Green = good; red = tread carefully.
(NEW) Sentiment - quantifies professional analyst ratings and holdings as well as market pulse. Green = positive sentiment; red = skepticism (Only available to Premium Subscribers).
(NEW) 360° View - the ultimate rating with all financial and non-financial indicators.

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt 360° View of 84 (better than 84% compared with alternatives) for 2024, overall professional sentiment and financial characteristics for the stock Teleperformance are very positive. The 360° View is based on consolidating four consolidated indicators, with half of the indicators below and half above average for Teleperformance. The consolidated Value Rank has an attractive rank of 97, which means that the share price of Teleperformance is on the lower side compared with typical size in indicators such as revenues, profits, and invested capital. This means the stock price is lower than for 97% of alternative stocks in the same industry. The company is also safely financed with a Safety rank of 63. In addition, professional market sentiment is above average compared with other stock investment alternatives with a Sentiment Rank of 55. But the consolidated Growth Rank has a low rank of 29, which means that the company is below average in terms of growth and momentum when looking at financial metrics such as revenue, profit, and invested capital growth as well as stock returns. 71 of its competitors have better growth. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated 360° View of 84, Teleperformance is better positioned than 84% of all alternative stock investment opportunities based on the Obermatt Method. Three out of four consolidated Obermatt Ranks show above-average performance. The stock has as good value (Value Rank of 97), secure financing practices (Safety Rank of 63), and positive market sentiment in the professional investor community (Sentiment Rank of 55). It is a solid stock investment where the risk of paying too much for the shares is limited, and disappointments are less likely to occur. The company’s growth expectations are below the industry average (Growth Rank of 29), but that could also be temporary since professional investors remain optimistic despite the low growth numbers. The low price as reflected in the good Value Rank could indicate that the company's future is challenging. The below-par growth performance may be the reason for this. Companies that grow less are typically cheaper than fast-growing competitors. We recommend evaluating whether the future of Teleperformance is as difficult as the stock’s low price suggests, despite the positive professional investor sentiment. Since the professional community is optimistic, you might have less to worry about, and the stock may just go through a more challenging phase now, indicating good timing. ...read more
Sentiment Strategy: Professional Market Sentiment for Teleperformance positive
ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Sentiment Rank of 55 (better than 55% compared with alternatives), overall professional sentiment and engagement for the stock Teleperformance is above average. The Sentiment Rank is based on consolidating four sentiment indicators, with half of the indicators below and half above average for Teleperformance. Analyst Opinions are at a rank of 51 (better than 51% of alternative investments), which means that currently, stock research analysts tend to recommend a stock investment in the company. Market Pulse is also positive with a rank of 52, which means that the current professional news and professional social networks are positive when discussing this company (more positive news than for 52% of competitors). But Analyst Opinions Change is negative with a below 50 rank of 40, which means that stock research experts are changing their opinions for the worse in recommending the company. In other words, they are getting more critical of investments in Teleperformance. There are also only so many institutional investors holding company stock with a Professional Investors rank of 44, which means that, currently, professional investors hold less stock in this company than in 56% of alternative investment opportunities. Pros tend to invest in other companies. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated Sentiment Rank of 55 (more positive than 55% compared with investment alternatives), Teleperformance has a reputation among professional investors that is above-average compared with that of its competitors. The signals are ambivalent. The positive news in the market contradicts the negative change in analyst recommendations. Since the overall analyst recommendations are still above average, the stock may be safer for investing, especially if it is not an extra-large company where Pros tend to be less present. In such a case, the Pro Investor rank is not a problem. ...read more
Value Strategy: Teleperformance Stock Price Value at the top
ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Value Rank of 97 (better than 97% compared with alternatives) for 2024, Teleperformance shares are significantly less expensive than comparable stocks. The Value Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators that are all above average for Teleperformance. Price-to-Sales is 74 which means that the stock price compared with what market professionals expect for future sales is lower than for 74% of comparable companies, indicating a good value for Teleperformance's revenue size. The same is valid for expected Price-to-Profits, more favorable than for 95% of alternatives, and this is also true for the Price-to-Book capital ratio (also referred to as market-to-book ratio) with a Price-to-Capital Rank of 87. Compared with other companies in the same industry, dividend yields of Teleperformance are expected to be higher than for 87% of all competitors (a Dividend Yield rank of 87). ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 97, is a buy recommendation based on Teleperformance's stock price compared with the company's operational size and dividend yields. Since all value metrics are above the industry average, there is no objection to investing in Teleperformance based on its detailed value metrics.
Growth Strategy: Teleperformance Growth Momentum low
ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Growth Rank of 29 (better than 29% compared with alternatives), Teleperformance shows a below-average growth dynamic in its industry. There is limited momentum in this company. The Growth Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, where half of the indicators are below and half above average for Teleperformance. Profit Growth, with a rank of 78 (better than 78% of its competitors), and Capital Growth, with a rank of 51, are both positive, which is a healthy sign for positive development. But Sales Growth has only a rank of 20, which means that, currently, professionals expect the company to grow less than 80% of its competitors, and Stock Returns are at a rank of 9. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Growth Rank of 29, is a hold recommendation for growth and momentum investors. Stock returns that are a thing of the past can be less of a problem. Below-average revenue growth may be caused by divestments of underperforming businesses. If that is the case, then the positive developments of profit and capital growth are signs of a company with growth potential. If these are the reasons, overall growth is well on track to making this stock attractive for growth investors. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Safety Rank of 63 (better than 63% compared with alternatives), the company Teleperformance has financing practices on the safer side, which mean that their overall debt burden is lower than average. This doesn't mean that the business of Teleperformance is safe, it only means that the company is on the safer side regarding possible bankruptcy, assuming that public reporting is correct. The Safety Rank is based on consolidating three financing indicators, with two out of three indicators above-average for Teleperformance. Refinancing is at 78, meaning the portion of the debt that is about to be refinanced is below average. It has less debt in the refinancing stage than 78% of its competitors. Liquidity is also good at 52, meaning the company generates more profit to service its debt than 52% of its competitors. This indicates that the company is safer when it comes to debt service. However, Leverage is rather large at 27, which means the company has an above-average debt-to-equity ratio. It has more debt than 73% of its competitors. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated Safety Rank of 63 (better than 63% compared with alternatives), Teleperformance has a financing structure that is safer than that of its competitors. This is not bad if things go well. The higher debt level means better returns to shareholders if things go well. Many top-performing companies operate with higher debt levels, and Teleperformance could be in that group. But if you expect the environment to turn rougher, the higher leverage could become a problem. The same is valid if you expect interest rates to rise. That could squeeze shareholder returns, which so far have benefitted from better conditions. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Combined Rank of 90 (better than 90% compared with investment alternatives), Teleperformance (Research & Consulting, France) shares have much better financial characteristics than comparable stocks. Shares of Teleperformance are a good value (attractively priced) with a consolidated Value Rank of 97 (better than 97% of alternatives), are safely financed (Safety Rank of 63, which means low debt burdens), but show below-average growth (Growth Rank of 29). ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: A Combined Rank of 90, is a strong buy recommendation based on Teleperformance's financial characteristics. As the company Teleperformance's key financial metrics exhibit good value (Obermatt Value Rank of 97) but low growth (Obermatt Growth Rank of 29) while being safely financed (Obermatt Safety Rank of 63), it may be a safer investment because companies with low debt can better withstand times of crises. Yet the good value, better than 97% of comparable companies, may also indicate that the company's future is challenging. If you believe that low growth is temporary or just due to a specific current event, you may conclude that the good value of the stock provides an attractive investment opportunity and the downside is limited due to below-average financing risks. ...read more
