Securitas (Buy, TP: SEK177.00) - New CEO to accelerate transition

Securitas new CEO Magnus Ahlqvist presented his first quarterly report, showing accelerating organic growth but weak earnings leverage, the same pattern of late. The Technology Solutions growth case, now detailed on a quarterly basis, progressed strongly (+20% YOY) and the new CEO wants to accelerate the company’s transition. We have raised our forecasts slightly (mainly FX driven) and reiterate our BUY recommendation, increasing our target price to SEK177 (175).
