Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Company FocusThe portfolio rationalisation leaves a more focused company and becomes a tailwind.
Contract WinsStrong contract win momentum is seen with the company winning over double its historical pace of net contract wins in USD terms.
Bears Say
Interest CostsHigher interest costs are 20% more than prior estimates, reflecting higher than expected M&A spend and the impact of debt refinancing.
Share BuybackThe lack of an additional buyback was surprising and disappointing, reflecting the company expecting leverage to be at the high end of the target range.
