Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

GB Group plc 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 adequate. The company scores 6/20 on our value-creation score: not creating value.

Flags to be aware of: A large part of the company's book value is the price paid for past acquisitions. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
