Margin improvements in Europe coming through

European margin key to reach targets

Organic growth holding up better than expected, 6% in Q1 is solid. EBITA cut 1-3%, margin shortfall in Europe is key to turn around. Operationally beating Brinks, but share lags significantly; BUY.

Loomis (Buy, TP: SEK425.00) - US strength, Euro weakness

Q1 saw still-strong organic growth, with improving US earnings leverage but still-weak European, and Loomis building further financial capacity, even as it executes on its share buyback programme.

We reiterate our BUY and SEK425 target price.

Good growth, but margin miss off-set
