Loomis (Buy, TP: SEK335.00) - Capital allocation opportunity
Loomis ended a mixed 2020 with record-strong US performance and record-high FCF generation, but with a European operation struggling in a Covid-19 lockdown environment. We see a potentially solid recovery case and a very well financed company. Given the weak share price recently, buying back its own shares could be the best investment opportunity for Loomis, with its board warming to the idea as a capital allocation tool. We reiterate our BUY and SEK335 target price.Loomis AB is a holding company. Through its subsidiaries, Co. provides solutions for cash handling in the U.S., majority parts of Europe and in Argentina.
