-- S&Pグローバル・レーティングは火曜日の発表で、オリックス(東証:8591)の銀行部門売却は同社の信用力に影響を与えないだろうと述べた。 オリックスは子会社であるオリックス銀行を、大和証券グループ(東証:8601)傘下のダイワネクスト銀行に約3,700億円で売却する計画だ。 S&Pの分析によると、銀行部門はグループのリスク加重資産の約5%を占めるに過ぎない。 一方、この売却により約1,242億円の税引前利益が見込まれると、S&Pは述べている。 S&Pは、売却完了後、オリックスが今後2年間、リスク調整後自己資本比率を9%~10%に維持すると予想している。 S&Pによると、売却後、オリックスはより収益性の高い事業や事業拡大に向けて資本配分をさらに強化していくという。

Research Alert: Sherwin-willams Q1 Eps Tops Expectations
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:SHW posted Q1 adjusted EPS of $2.35 versus $2.25 prior year, beating our $2.17 estimate and $2.27 consensus view. Net sales advanced 6.8% Y/Y to $5.67B, exceeding our 4.0% growth forecast, led by the Suvinil acquisition, favorable FX, and modest volume gains. The company demonstrated solid operational execution, with Paint Stores same-store sales improving to 2.4% from 1.2% in the prior year and Consumer Brands posting 19.2% growth, though North American DIY demand remained soft. Management maintained FY2026 guidance of low- to mid-single-digit sales growth with adjusted EPS projected at $11.50-$11.90, representing ~2.4% growth at the midpoint. Gross margin expanded 90bps to 49.1% on moderating raw material costs and improved pricing, though SG&A rose 9.8% as Suvinil integration costs pressured margins. The company also continued its shareholder return program in Q1, deploying $772.7M through dividends and share repurchases, despite acknowledging persistent macroeconomic uncertainty.
Research Alert: Ecolab Posts Solid Q1; Accelerated Growth; Near-term Margin Pressure Expected
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Ecolab reported Q1 sales of $4.1B (+10% Y/Y), $37M above consensus, with organic growth accelerating to +4% from +3% in Q4. Adjusted EPS of $1.70 (+13% Y/Y) met consensus, while operating margin expanded 70 bps to 16.7%, progressing toward the 20% target by 2027. Growth engines (20% of sales) showed strengthening momentum, with Global High-Tech delivering +25% organic growth from AI infrastructure and Life Sciences accelerating to +11% led by bioprocessing demand. Management maintained full-year EPS guidance of $8.43-$8.63 (+12% to +15%) but guided Q2 below estimates due to commodity cost pressures requiring energy surcharges. We view the High-Tech momentum as particularly significant given the multi-year AI data center runway, while the pending CoolIT acquisition reinforces ECL's end-to-end cooling capabilities. We see risk to 2H margin expansion if commodity costs remain elevated or if pricing implementation faces resistance, testing ECL's value proposition and customer relationships.
