Bulls say / Bears say
Security Printing has a substantial, diversified order book that should keep capacity well utilised into 2027. High demand and early 2027 orders provide unusual revenue visibility for the group. (FinanzWire, Edison Group)
Orell Füssli is expanding book retailing while a major rival retreats from physical shops. First-half sales growth, three new branches and the acquisition of 13 stationery stores could strengthen its Swiss market position and its omnichannel network. (SRF)
Procivis won two EU tenders, giving Orell Füssli early commercial traction in digital identity solutions. This creates a potential growth option alongside the more established printing and retail operations. (FinanzWire, schweizeraktien.net)
First-half adjusted EBIT fell 32% to CHF6.9 million, despite slightly higher revenue, as a less complex security-printing order mix cut divisional profit. This shows that a full order book does not guarantee strong margins. (FinanzWire, cash)
Zeiser was hit by postponed Gulf-region projects, leaving first-half revenue slightly lower and the division loss-making. Geopolitical delays could continue to make this smaller industrial business volatile. (FinanzWire)
Book retailing revenue grew 2.3% in the first half, but EBIT dropped as the A. Köhler acquisition increased costs, while weak consumer sentiment remains a constraint. Further shop openings and integration spending could therefore dilute near-term returns. (SRF, Börsenblatt)
