Analyst projections of the future price of Lagardere SA stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
First-half recurring EBIT rose 3.6%, cash flow increased 21% to €70 million, and debt fell by more than €200 million over 12 months. That combination of improving earnings and deleveraging strengthens the balance sheet. (Lagardère)
Travel Retail delivered record summer revenue, with like-for-like sales up 3.3% in the third quarter and across the first nine months. Growth in Europe and North America shows the core business can expand despite slower air-traffic growth. (Lagardère)
Publishing’s international mix is providing resilience: nine-month revenue rose 1.1% like for like, with third-quarter growth led by English- and Spanish-language general literature. Its diverse markets and catalogue help offset weaker results in some territories. (Lagardère)
Travel Retail remains exposed to travel disruption: third-quarter revenue fell 22% in Asia-Pacific and 59% in North Asia, amid store closures in China. The group also warned that conflict-related disruption could weigh on air traffic, costs and supply. (Lagardère)
Trading outside Travel Retail is less robust: third-quarter Publishing revenue grew only 0.9% like for like, including a 4% decline in France, while Lagardère Live fell 3.2% as radio advertising weakened. This leaves more of the group’s growth dependent on its travel business. (Lagardère)
