穆迪確認Expleo評級,展望下調至負面




穆迪確認Expleo Services SAS的B3長期企業家族評級,但展望由穩定轉為負面

穆迪評級今日確認Expleo Services SAS的長期企業家族評級(CFR)為B3,同時確認其B3-PD違約概率評級(PDR)及以擔保高級銀行貸款的B3評級。然而,該公司的信用展望由穩定調整為負面。

業績疲弱引發展望調降

此次展望調整反映出Expleo在2024年的營運表現較預期疲弱。公司2024年收入僅較2023年增長1%,較管理層預算目標低6%。需求疲軟主要源自汽車行業客戶面對的持續經濟挑戰,該行業約佔Expleo總收入的24%。因此,多個項目出現延誤、價格重新談判,甚至部分項目被擱置。

疲弱的業績亦導致2024年出現高達3,200萬歐元的非經常性現金支出,主要與裁員相關。這使穆迪調整後的負債與息稅折舊攤銷前利潤(EBITDA)比率由2023年的6.6倍升至2024年的7.7倍,息稅折舊攤銷前利潤與利息費用比率由1.4倍降至1.3倍。自由現金流對負債比率因大量例外現金支出而轉為負1%。

未來展望與挑戰

穆迪預計2025年Expleo仍將面臨挑戰,收入和EBITDA將輕微下滑,因汽車行業逆風持續。但預計2026及2027年收入將逐步回升3%-5%,主要受價格提升及業務量增加推動,EBITDA亦可望因成本節省、改善開票率、進一步裁員及更多初級員工使用而提升約15%。

儘管有這些措施,全球宏觀經濟環境持續疲弱,令未來充滿不確定性。穆迪預計2025年調整後槓桿率將維持高位約7.7倍,至2026年才會回落至6.6倍。自由現金流對負債比率在2025年仍為負3%,2026年才有望達到收支平衡。

信用風險與流動性狀況

負面展望反映出穆迪預期Expleo的營運表現及信用指標在2025年仍將疲弱,僅從2026年起逐步復甦。這亦凸顯公司在2027年3月到期的循環信貸額度及同年9月到期的定期貸款前,改善信用指標的時間有限。

截至2024年12月31日,Expleo持有約9,200萬歐元現金,循環信貸額度尚有5,000萬歐元可用(總額為1.15億歐元),短期流動性尚算充足。近期債務到期日為2027年3月循環信貸額度到期。

若營運表現改善,令穆迪調整後負債/EBITDA持續低於5.5倍,自由現金流對負債達3%-5%,且公司能在債務到期前順利再融資並維持穩健流動性,評級有望升級。

相反,若營運持續疲弱,導致負債/EBITDA持續高於6.5倍,EBITDA與利息比率低於1.5倍,或自由現金流持續為負,或流動性惡化,評級可能被下調。信用指標長期無改善或會危及公司提前再融資能力,增加違約風險。

編者評論:
穆迪對Expleo Services展望調降至負面,反映了汽車行業需求疲軟對其業務造成的壓力。這提醒我們,在全球經濟不穩定的大環境下,專注於特定行業的企業風險尤為突出。Expleo的財務槓桿水平高企,現金流轉負,顯示其抵抗市場波動的能力有限。

不過,公司已採取多項成本控制措施,包括裁員及提升開票效率,顯示其試圖積極應對挑戰。未來幾年能否成功扭轉頹勢,關鍵在於行業景氣復甦及公司內部效率提升。穆迪強調了債務到期前的再融資風險,這是投資者不可忽視的警號。

對香港及國際投資者而言,Expleo的案例提醒我們,評估企業信用時,除了關注當前業績,亦要重視行業結構變化及宏觀經濟環境的不確定性。對於依賴單一或少數行業的公司,更需警惕其業績波動對財務健康的影響。未來若Expleo能順利改善槓桿及現金流狀況,評級有望回穩甚至升級,但若全球經濟持續疲軟,風險不容小覷。這亦反映出企業在多元化和風險管理上的重要性。
