CC and Contact: A third profit warning but share price correction looks excessive
A third sales and profit warning after Philippe Salle’s departure, it seems to be clear that there are some errors related to its management with too ambitious short and medium-term objectives, even if some of the adjustments result from temporary factors. In fact these letter factors i.e. slower ramp-up of new contracts, bad weather conditions and transport strikes in France explaining 50% of the EBITDA margin downgrade. The remaining margin impact was link to group specific organization in France with actions already undertaken. In line with management new guidance and waiting the new business plan wich will be presented on 26th June, we have downgraded our estimates. Based on a DCF and using lower long term EBITDA margin, our FV move to EUR17.5.
