>Q2 2024 revenues slightly lower than expected due to auto and aerospace - Alten yesterday evening reported Q3 revenues of € 1,009m, stable y-o-y in organic terms, and close to expectations (ODDO BHF: € 1,017m up 0.9%: css: € 1,015m, growth of 0.6%). France still showed a robust performance (+5.9% organic), admittedly helped by a very positive calendar effect. Stripping out the calendar effect, growth was 2.9%, slower than in Q2 (+5.4% organic), penalised by the stron...

Hors effet calendaire, la croissance est de 2.9%, en ralentissement par rapport auT2 (+5.4% org) pénali...
The recovery in growth in the IT & engineering services sector is undermined by the still mixed macroeconomic climate and the setbacks in the automotive and aerospace sectors. The improvement in sector momentum will therefore be minimal in H2 2024 with a growing decorrelation between the US which should be robust and a stagnating Europe. This leads us to adopt a more cautious approach on companies in our sector (revision to our 2025 growth estimates for 12 companies) and to prefe...
La reprise de la croissance du secteur IT & Engineering Services est mise à mal par un contexte macro toujours mitigé et par les déboires des secteurs Auto et Aéro. Ainsi, l’amélioration de la dynamique du secteur sera minimale au S2 2024 et probablement aussi au S1 2025, avec une décorrélation grandissante entre les US qui devraient être solides et une Europe stagnante. Ceci nous amène à adopter une approche plus prudente pour les sociétés de notre secteur (révision de croissanc...

>H1 results under control in a challenging context - The H1 2024 results published on Thursday evening and detailed on Friday morning contained few surprises after the indications already given at the Q2 sales release in July. The operating margin on activity was down -80bp, with -30bp reflecting the unfavourable calendar effect. The balance mainly reflects the -60bp y-o-y decline in the utilisation rate and (non-billable) investments made to structure the group’s int...
>Résultats S1 sous contrôle dans un contexte difficile - Les résultats S1 2024 publiés jeudi soir et détaillés vendredi matin ont révélé peu de surprises après les indications déjà données lors de la publication du CA T2 en juillet dernier. La marge opérationnelle d’activité est en baisse de 80 pb, dont 30 pb liés à l’effet calendaire défavorable. Le solde est essentiellement lié à la baisse de 60 pb y/y du taux d’utilisation et aux investissements (non facturables) r...

It has recently completed a successful transformation which should result in a much more stable results and cash flow profile going forward (EBITDA margin c.15% vs 10-year historical average of 9%) although 2024 will be a transition year ahead of the completion of the ADNOC contract and the closing of Mubadala’s transaction (acquisition o...
