Core & Main: Rating Downgrade On Uncertain FY25 Outlook
I downgraded Core & Main to hold due to macro uncertainty and a soft FY25 outlook, despite Q4-24 results being in line. Organic growth stalled with just 1.5% y/y in Q4-24; FY25 revenue guidance implies only 2-5% growth, significantly lower than FY24's 11%. Elevated SG&A costs from recent acquisitions hinder margin expansion, making earnings growth reliant on cost reductions, which seems unlikely.
