Bulls say / Bears say

Adecco delivered 5.6% organic revenue growth in Q2, its fifth consecutive quarter of growth, and gained 160 basis points of market share. Growth was broad across regions, while Akkodis returned to growth. (Adecco Group)
Higher volumes and cost discipline lifted Q2 EBITA by 21% year on year and expanded the margin by 30 basis points to 2.8%. Cash conversion was 83%, and net debt to EBITDA improved by 0.5 times year on year. (Adecco Group)
Adecco is rolling out AI tools across more than 40 countries and 27,000 employees, building on recruitment agents already used in ten countries. If the reported time savings translate into lasting productivity gains, the technology could improve service capacity and lower costs. (Adecco Group, Adecco Group)
Permanent recruitment remains weaker than temporary staffing: Reuters reported it was down about 7% in Q1, while Adecco's Q2 permanent placement was only flat. This mix has weighed on gross margin, which remained lower year on year on an organic basis in Q2. (Reuters, Adecco Group)
The adjusted Q2 margin was still just 2.8%, well below the 4–5% level Adecco achieved several years ago, according to OCU. It also notes that higher-priced permanent recruitment has yet to recover and large-client contracts can bring lower prices. (OCU Inversiones)
Akkodis' German automotive business remains exposed to cancelled or delayed client projects, which left excess capacity and prompted another restructuring. Management indicated about €15 million of Q3 one-off charges, so execution and near-term earnings remain vulnerable to further weakness there. (Investing.com)
