When compared to its international counterparts in the same sector and industry (as shown above), the stock has exceeded their performances, leading by 15ppts in total. This is equally valid for peers from the same country and industry. Given the stock's valuation versus its peers, its total price movement is neither favourable nor unfavourable.

The company has reported weak EBITDA margins compared to its global peers in recent years. EBITDA margin amounted to 4.9% in the last 12 months, up from 2.4% in FY23. 

Historically, SELEC.IS has reported weak net margins compared to its global peers. Specifically, in the last 12 months, this metric equalled 1.6%, a growth from 0.2% in FY23. 

In the last 12 months, the return on capital employed (RoCE) grew to 9.9%, above the peers. The consensus estimate for FY24 for RoCE is 7.1%, however, this time below its peers. 

Another important profitability metric, return on assets (RoA), amounted to 3.5% in the last 12 months, an increase from 0.7% in FY23. The market analysts predict that RoA will be 0.3% in FY24, again weaker than its peers.

Liquidity is usually quite stable and is average on the days with the lowest activity. The trading volume mostly stays the same even under highly turbulent market conditions. 

No other major risks have been identified.

The risk of default is high. Among the negative credit factors, we point to weak positions in its industry, bleak profitability, and poor working capital management. We note resilient historical revenue growth, low margin volatility, strong debt servicing capacity, adequate interest coverage, and an favourable capital structure, among the positive credit factors. 

In highly turbulent market conditions, SELEC.IS is not overly volatile. In other words, the stock will fall less than the index in times of extreme market volatility or shocking company news. Standalone, the worst-day losses (less than 1% of the time) will likely be low. 

In normal market circumstances, SELEC.IS is as volatile as an index. Put differently, without outstanding market volatility or shocking company news, the stock's price will move with the index. The stock's losses on its worst days (less than 1-5% of the time) will range from limited to average. We would also like to highlight the average intraday volatility of the instrument. 

From both historical and forecast perspectives, the stock is underpriced compared to similar stocks. In particular, the stock is reasonably priced on P/E, of fair value on EV/EBITD.
