What the Analysts think about Ipsos SA

Analyst projections of the future price of Ipsos SA stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Organic growth accelerated to 2.0% in Q3 from 0.8% in the first half, after a 1.4% contraction in Q1. Ipsos still expects full-year growth of 1.2%–1.5%, ahead of 2025’s 0.6%, suggesting a gradual recovery despite the lower forecast. (GlobeNewswire)
Ipsos.Digital grew organically by 14%, while the group is adding AI-powered research products and using a Google Cloud partnership to speed up delivery. If clients adopt these services at scale, they could support growth beyond traditional research work. (GlobeNewswire)
Ipsos has room to invest and return cash to shareholders: net debt was €219.6 million at mid-year, leverage was 0.5 times EBITDA, and first-half operating free cash flow rose to €44.3 million. The company planned a €100 million share buyback for 2026. (GlobeNewswire)
Ipsos cut its 2026 organic growth outlook to 1.2%–1.5% from about 2%, citing its performance so far, the order book and an uncertain economic and geopolitical backdrop. The revision shows that the recovery remains modest and less certain than management expected in July. (GlobeNewswire)
Performance is uneven across the business: organic revenue fell 1.2% in the Americas in Q3, while Clients & Employees declined 2.5%. Weakness in these areas could offset strength in EMEA, China and Citizens services. (GlobeNewswire)
First-half operating profit fell 3.1% year on year and the operating margin slipped to 7.9% from 8.3%, despite slightly higher revenue. Lower gross margin and one-off IT project write-downs also point to pressure on profitability while Ipsos invests in its strategic plan. (GlobeNewswire)
