Outperform
Cogent Communications' fundamentals are a standout, earning an exceptional 9.5/10. Key strengths include a 6.49% year-over-year growth in basic earnings per share, a healthy inventory turnover of 232 days, and an impressive 80.21% growth in net cash flow from operating activities. These metrics place the company in favorable quartiles, indicating solid operational efficiency and financial health. However, caution is warranted on asset and profit valuation multiples, which are in the first quartile and may cap near-term upside. Overall, the balance sheet and cash generation capabilities are robust, providing a strong base for long-term growth.
