- Long-term growth fueled by demographic and regulatory trends in safety, environment, and healthcare sectors.
What critics are saying
- Customer concentration: Alphabet (Google) accounts for 20% of revenue, creating immediate earnings volatility.
- Premium valuation at 36x earnings leaves no room for error if photonics growth slows or drops.
- Key executive departure of Constance Baroudel disrupts leadership in the photonics-heavy Environmental sector.
