▲(28.13% Upside)
Action:ReiteratedDate:03/08/26
The score is supported by solid underlying financial performance (improving margins and strong cash generation) and a positive earnings call with upbeat 2026 guidance and strong order/backlog visibility. These are tempered by weak technical momentum (below key moving averages with negative MACD) and some fundamental uncertainty from the sharp latest-period revenue decline and ongoing execution/headwind risks in Cyber & Digital.
Positive Factors
Defence Backlog & Order Visibility
A EUR 42bn defence backlog (~3.4 years of sales) and sustained book‑to‑bill >1.2 give multi‑year revenue visibility, smoothing revenue timing risk. Large programme wins and repeat government contracts support predictable engineering throughput, long-term margins and sustained FCF generation.
Negative Factors
Cyber & Digital Underperformance
Persistent weakness in Cyber & Digital, including double‑digit services declines and a products drop, highlights execution and integration risks (Imperva merger friction). Given the strategic aim to grow digital revenues, continued underperformance could structurally depress group growth and dilute margins.

Thales SA Unsponsored ADR Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Mar 03, 2026
(Q4-2025)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Jul 23, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call presented a strongly positive financial and commercial performance for 2025: record-level order intake, accelerating organic sales growth (+8.8%), improved profitability (adjusted EBIT +>13%, margin 12.4%), exceptional free operating cash flow (EUR 2.6bn, +27%) and meaningful deleveraging (net debt EUR 1.6bn). Strategic highlights include Defence momentum (EUR 15.1bn orders, EUR 42bn backlog), Avionics/Space recovery, AI and R&D leadership, and progress on a proposed European space JV. Key challenges center on Cyber & Digital underperformance (Cyber Products -3.8% organic; Cyber Services down double-digit) linked to integration friction, FX headwinds (~-1.5pp on sales), a recurring French tax surcharge (EUR 75m in 2025; ~EUR 90m expected in 2026), and higher near-term CapEx. On balance, the positive commercial, profitability and cash-generation results and strong defence/aerospace momentum outweigh the cyber and near-term cost/FX headwinds, and management provided clear plans and guidance to address weaknesses.Positive Updates
Record Order Intake Maintained
Order intake of EUR 25.3 billion in 2025, matching the record level from 2024; group book-to-bill ratio at 1.14 and 1.24 for Defence, indicating strong commercial momentum and healthy future revenue visibility.
Negative Updates
Cyber & Digital Underperformance
Cyber & Digital sales were broadly flat organically in 2025. Cyber Products declined 3.8% organically and Cyber Services were down double-digit (notably soft in Australia). Integration of Imperva caused elevated sales-force turnover and weighed on performance; Digital Identity only up ~1% organically. CDI adjusted EBIT margin was 13.7% but management indicates recurring margin closer to ~13% for 2025.

Company Guidance
Thales guided for 2026 to a book‑to‑bill above 1 with dynamic organic sales growth of 6–7% (sales €23.3–23.6bn including FX), an adjusted EBIT margin of 12.6–12.8%, and a free operating cash‑flow conversion ratio of 95–100%; CapEx is expected around €820–850m (~3.5% of sales) and the company plans to recruit >9,000 employees. By division, Defence is expected to grow high single‑digit (backlog €42bn, ~3.4 years of sales), Aerospace mid‑single‑digit (avionics mid‑single‑digit), and Cyber & Digital mid‑single‑digit overall (cyber above, digital lower). The 2026 P&L will absorb a French tax surcharge (~€90m, ~€50m higher than 2025), the Board will propose a €3.90 dividend (+5.5%), and Thales reaffirmed medium‑term targets: 2024–28 average cash conversion 95–105% and an ambition to reach ~13–14% adjusted EBIT margin by 2028.Thales SA Unsponsored ADR Financial Statement Overview
