中東戦争の影響でエルメスの株価が急落、第1四半期の売上が落ち込む

-- エルメス・インターナショナル(RMS.PA)の第1四半期売上高は、為替変動による2億9000万ユーロの損失と、中東情勢の悪化に伴う観光客減少の影響で、市場予想を下回った。 パリ市場では、水曜日の正午時点で株価が9%以上下落した。 フランスの高級ブランドグループであるエルメスの3月31日までの3ヶ月間の売上高は、報告ベースで前年同期比1.4%減の40億7000万ユーロとなり、Visible Alphaのコンセンサス予想である41億6000万ユーロを下回った。しかし、為替変動の影響を除いた実質ベースでは、売上高は5.6%増加したと、同社は同日発表した決算報告書で明らかにした。 地域別に見ると、為替変動の影響を除いた実質ベースでは、フランスを除く欧州の売上高は9.7%増加し、米州地域と日本を除くアジア太平洋地域はそれぞれ17.2%増、2.2%増となった。日本は売上高が9.6%増加した一方、中東とフランスは戦争の影響による観光客減少を受け、それぞれ5.9%減、2.8%減となった。 エルメスは、時計部門が3.7%減となった以外は、為替変動の影響を除けば全事業部門で売上高が伸びた。香水・化粧品部門とプレタポルテ・アクセサリー部門は横ばいの売上を記録した。 「エルメスの2026年第1四半期の売上高は41億ユーロ(オーガニック成長率+5.6%)で、市場予想(+7.1%)を2%下回ったものの、RBCの予想(+5.9%)とはほぼ一致した。予想を上回る米州とフランスを除く欧州の好調は、フランス(観光客減少)とアジア太平洋地域の不振によって相殺された」と、RBCキャピタル・マーケッツのアナリストは速報で述べた。「予想を下方修正し、発表前の株価も比較的軟調だったにもかかわらず、今回の業績は一部で失望を招く可能性がある」。今後の見通しとして、エルメスは、世界的な経済、地政学、金融情勢の不確実性にもかかわらず、中期的に為替レート一定ベースでの売上高成長を達成するという目標を改めて表明した。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
