Sure -- if you have regulated the sights for whatever size bullseye you use and whatever distance you usually shoot at. This was straight out of the box, so the only valid comparison is where did it shoot compared to where it was aimed.

That's a B-16 25-yard slow-fire target. The black is 5-5/16" diameter. To hit the X using a 6 o'clock hold, it means the sights have to be regulated to shoot 2.66 inches above point-of-aim at 25 yards. For anything other than shooting that exact diameter bullseye at that exact distance, having POI 2-5/8" above POA is not especially good.
