According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:SAG is a Outperform.

Science Group’s strong financial performance and strategic corporate actions, such as share buybacks, are the most significant factors contributing to its score. The stock’s undervaluation and solid dividend yield further enhance its attractiveness. However, technical indicators suggest caution in the short term.
