Robert Walters Expected to Post Further Losses -- Market Talk

Dow Jones01-15

0944 GMT - Robert Walters is forecast to post further losses moving forward, after missing net fee income expectations in the fourth quarter, Panmure Liberum analyst Sanjay Vidyarthi says in a research note. Given the loss-making forecasts for 2025 and 2026, no dividend is expected to be paid in order to conserve cash, the analyst adds. Nevertheless, the British recruitment company looks to be doing the right things in terms of the operational focus and cost initiatives, he says. "The [focus on permanent recruitment] means the business is highly geared into the cycle and well positioned to leverage a recovery in markets when it comes," he adds. Shares trade 4.8% lower at 130 pence. (nina.kienle@wsj.com)
