Hannes Leitner has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors surrounding Worldline’s current business strategy and financial positioning. The potential sale of Worldline’s Indian business, valued at approximately $200 million, aligns with the company’s strategic move to streamline its portfolio after several acquisitions. This decision is seen as a step towards concentrating on core regions and segments, which could help manage the company’s debt obligations.
While the sale could potentially bring some financial relief and focus to Worldline, the lack of official comments from the company adds a layer of uncertainty. This cautious approach reflects the need to observe how these strategic adjustments will impact Worldline’s overall financial health and market position, justifying the Hold recommendation.
