Elior Group reported a significant increase in its annual core profit, which nearly tripled, surpassing market estimates. This surge in profitability is attributed to effective portfolio rationalization. However, despite these strong results, Elior's stock faced a decline following the company's cautious revenue growth forecast for 2025, which analysts deemed too conservative. The firm’s annual accounts exceeded expectations, but the disappointing outlook has led to a negative reaction in the stock market. Concurrently, the CAC 40 index experienced fluctuations, closing below 7,200 points as investors awaited quarterly results from Nvidia, the largest publicly traded company globally. Elior's stock performance has been particularly scrutinized in light of the broader market's response to geopolitical tensions and upcoming earnings reports.
