Verdict: Hold; business quality justifies the premium, but valuation and momentum limit near-term upside potential.
Main risk: The main risk is the demanding valuation (P/E 24.47, EV/EBITDA 18.10) which leaves little room for error if revenue growth (7.50%) decelerates or negative momentum persists.
