Bunzl Delivers in 2016 Despite Some Short-Term Headwinds

Narrow-moat Bunzl reported full-year results broadly in line with our expectations, with revenue and EPS growth of 14%, driven primarily through acquisitions. These results essentially confirm our long-term expectations for the company, outlined in our initiation report in December 2016, and so we do not expect to make any material changes to our long-term forecasts or to our GBX 1,970 fair value estimate. We believe the stock is fairly valued at this time.
