Upon the publication of H1 2026 (July 29, 2026), the group raised its annual organic growth target, now set between 2.0% and 2.5%, citing strong progress in aerospace (+12%) and defense-security-space (+10%). It had also reported a margin decline in France, at 9.5% compared to 10.2%, due to a temporary increase in outsourcing. Regarding short positions, three funds combined hold 2.80% of the capital according to the declarations consulted, compared to 3.92% thirty days ago.
This decline of 1.12 points indicates that the bearish bet has eased significantly in one month. These positions nonetheless remain present, which warrants monitoring their evolution without drawing premature conclusions.
