Recommendation
Sell PPE
Entry price: $1.345
Stop Loss: $1.12
Rationale:
Upon reviewing PeopleIn’s first-half FY24 earnings, we recommend exiting our position. Despite a record revenue of $602.7 million, the company faced a significant decline in profitability, with EBITDA and NPATA down by 37.7% and 34.3%, respectively. This downturn is attributed to a shift towards lower-margin work and a decrease in permanent recruitment, particularly in the tech sector. Although PeopleIn has implemented cost-saving measures, the current financial challenges, exacerbated by tough market conditions, suggest a prudent move to mitigate risks.
Our Stop loss for this trade has been hit and we will take our losses on this position.
