MicroVision MOVIA lidar gains support on NVIDIA DRIVE AGX platform
On Monday, RBC Capital Markets analyst Andrew Brooke upgraded Capita Plc (LON:CPI:LN) (OTC: CTAGF) stock from Sector Perform to Outperform, while also raising the price target from £0.17 to £0.20. The revision follows the company’s full-year results and guidance, which met expectations. According to InvestingPro data, Capita trades at a notably low P/E ratio of 3.05, though investors should note the company’s significant debt burden with a debt-to-equity ratio of 3.41. However, the highlight was the increased transparency provided around Capita’s Experience division.
Brooke noted that the Pensions Solutions business is generating more profit than previously anticipated, while the Contact Centre business has been less profitable, contributing no earnings. This reassessment has led to positive adjustments in the sum-of-the-parts (SOP) valuation of the company.
The analyst’s commentary highlighted the improved risk-reward profile for Capita, expressing a belief that the stock is now more favorably positioned. Additionally, Brooke pointed out that Capita is approaching a significant financial milestone, as the company nears a state of positive free cash flow (FCF).
The upgrade suggests a more optimistic outlook for Capita’s financial performance, particularly in light of the new information regarding the profitability of its various divisions. The increased price target reflects this enhanced perspective on the company’s value, signaling confidence in Capita’s potential for growth and profitability.
