Spark’s Take on GB:BOY Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:BOY is a Neutral.
Bodycote’s overall stock score is moderate. The company faces financial pressures with declining profitability and increased leverage, yet maintains strong cash flow.

While the P/E ratio indicates potential overvaluation, the dividend yield and strategic share buyback efforts provide positive offsets. Investors should monitor for improvements in financial performance and market trends.
