Hannes Leitner has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors affecting EDENRED’s performance. The company is experiencing a continuation of trends observed in the first quarter, with expectations that the second quarter will mirror these developments. Although there is some relief from headwinds in the gift solutions sector and Belgian purchasing power, challenges persist in the mobility sector and due to social program issues in Chile.
Despite these challenges, EDENRED is managing to offset some of the topline pressures through cost efficiencies at the EBITDA level. However, the second half of the year is expected to face additional challenges due to regulatory changes in Italy affecting commission caps. These mixed factors contribute to a cautious outlook, justifying the Hold rating as the company navigates both opportunities and risks in its operating environment.
Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 21 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is negative on the stock. This means that over the past quarter there has been an increase of insiders selling their shares of 0MUM in relation to earlier this year.
