Atos: Adjusting our forecasts as we include Syntel in our model

Atos: (BUY, Fair Value EUR157 vs. EUR163 (+58%))
Adjusting our forecasts as we include Syntel in our model
We reiterate our Buy rating but adjust our DCF-derived fair value to EUR157 from EUR163 as a consequence of the Syntel acquisition: +EUR19 on raised forecasts over 2018-2020, +EUR7 on raised mid-term adj. EBIT margin to 12.5% from 12%, and -EUR32 as we increase our company beta to 1.05 from 0.93. While we raise our adj. EPS ests. by 4% for 2018 and 15% for 2019-2020, we justify a higher company beta due to integration risks, net debt position, and recent sluggish revenue growth.

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.
