Securitas (Buy, TP: SEK175.00) - Another step in the right direction

Securitas’s Q3 was strong, with Europe and IberoAmerica improving and the US remaining solid. FCF generation was much-improved, accelerating the balance sheet de-gearing. We have tweaked our forecasts post-Q3. We still see a solid transformation case, as the journey towards the 8% profit margin target by end-2025 (LTM 6.8%) continues. We reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to SEK175 (160).
