NEUTRAL IMPACT
Cisco Systems shows potential undervaluation with a low P/E ratio of 15.55 and a P/B ratio of 4.05 compared to industry averages. However, its high P/S ratio of 3.39 suggests overvaluation based on revenue. The company has a low ROE of 4.1% and negative revenue growth of -12.83%, indicating potential inefficiency and struggle in generating sales. Despite this, Cisco's high EBITDA of $3.45 billion and gross profit of $8.27 billion highlight strong profitability.
Cisco's low P/E and P/B ratios suggest it may be undervalued, but its high P/S ratio indicates overvaluation based on revenue. The low ROE and negative revenue growth are concerning, but the high EBITDA and gross profit show strong profitability. These mixed signals suggest a neutral short-term impact on the stock price.
