Altran Technologies: Over-reaction is not the solution

Altran Technologies: (BUY-TOP PICKS, Fair Value EUR17 (+98%))
Over-reaction is not the solution
The share price plummeted by 27% on Friday following the disclosure of USD10m forged purchased orders at Aricent in the period prior to its acquisition by Altran. While we do not minimise the facts, we consider this stock market reaction excessive given the isolated nature of the forgery and the minimal direct and indirect impact it is thought to have on sales and profitability. We understand that a significant part of the lost profit will be recovered before late 2018.

Since 1996, Bryan, Garnier & Co has been growing with an absolute conviction that the investment banking landscape would experience a major revolution: most of the large local generalist banking groups will disappear to the benefit of a handful of global powerhouses, and an emerging group of independent, highly specialised boutique investment banks.
