Spark’s Take on TSE:CGI Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:CGI is a Outperform.

The score is driven primarily by solid financial resilience (notably conservative leverage) but tempered by volatile revenue/earnings and uneven cash flow quality. Valuation is a key positive with a very low P/E and a moderate yield, while technicals show a constructive uptrend. Recent corporate updates add incremental support via NAV gains and leverage reduction.
