Linde's strong financial performance and robust cash flow generation are key strengths. However, a high P/E ratio and mixed technical indicators suggest caution. The earnings call highlights resilience through strong EPS growth and a solid backlog, but also underlines ongoing market challenges. Recent corporate events further support financial stability.

We expect Linde to benefit in 2025 from increased demand for its industrial gases. The company has a strong presence in many defensive end markets, including healthcare, food & beverages, and electronics that should generate consistent revenues even in a soft economic environment.
