Description

Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

DIC Corporation sits in the middle of our grid: average quality, average price, no obvious signal in either direction.

Valuation data is not available for this company.

Growth is moderate; the safety picture is stretched. The company scores 13/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

Flags to be aware of: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
