Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Debt Market ConfidenceConfidence in debt markets increased throughout the year.
Economic ResilienceThe US economy has been far more resilient than MCO anticipated heading into the year.
Financial PerformanceResults highlight MIS' strength and good expense discipline with revenue +36% and margins +730bps to 63.2% in a known strong issuance environment.
Bears Say
Market ConditionsManagement revised down annual recurring revenue growth due to tighter selling conditions in banks and asset managers, and uncertainty from government agencies in purchasing around election time.
Revenue PerformanceMoody's Analytics revenue was lighter than expected, missing MSe by -2%, and MA ARR growth guidance lowered to HSD-LDD (from LDD).
Strategic OutlookThe MA segment outlook is more mixed due to strategic shifts from the MSCI partnership, tight purchasing behaviors among banks and asset managers, and government renewal uncertainty with the approaching US election.
