Good morning everyone,

What is your assessment of $MANH (+1,58%) ?

The share has been punished with -44% in the last 3 months.

In my opinion, the sell-off was completely exaggerated because the company delivers strong key figures.

• ROE 75.64
• ROCE 75.69
• ROTC 80.14
• FCF growth +18.57

I think I will buy the share soon, but I would be interested in any opinions that would speak against it.
