Business Services The tide of inflation lifts the services boat
All players in facility management sector published better than expected results and many of them upgraded their guidance showing that Inflation has driven a stronger than expected top line organic growth while margins remained in line with expectations. Historically, market leaders were resilient with steady organic growth and relatively stable margin during recessions and crises since 2001. Since inflation is here to stay, we have revised slightly upwards our top line estimations for all stocks. Considering a potential economic recession to come, we stay prudent for margins. We confirmed our positive outlook for this sector without significant changes of TP and recommendations in our revision. Among our coverage we recommend Elis for resilience and ISS for upside in the mid term
