Spark’s Take on GB:CBG Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:CBG is a Neutral.
The score is held back primarily by weakening profitability (revenue decline and a net loss) and rising leverage, despite a notable rebound in operating/free cash flow. Technicals are supportive with a strong uptrend but appear overbought, and valuation is constrained by a negative P/E and no dividend yield data.
