That's all basically correct, but I don't think it's a good idea to derive future P/E ratios from old ones. You rarely see 50 in the retail sector. In view of the high proportion of labor costs in the industry and the political demands for higher minimum wages, the margin trend also seems critical to me.
It may help to take a comparative look at the competition (EssilorLuxottica, not Mister Spex). The share price has performed better there in recent years. I would compare before you buy.
(Transparency note: I am invested in both companies)

@Jb9 Yes, thanks for your opinion. Yes, I thought the same thing about the margins. I haven't got in yet either. If the share is a bit cheaper again then I might dare to get in

@Jb9 By "both companies" do you mean Essilor and mister spex or also Fielmann?
