Indra novedad

Bankinter | The news comes after Indra’s Board of Directors unanimously agreed to the potential purchase of Escribano Mechanical and Engineering (EM&E) on 11 December.

Analysis team’s view: Negative impact, as the request by the State Industrial Holdings Company (SEPI) Chair highlights the conflict of interest inherent in the transaction. We maintain our Neutral recommendation and Target Price of €53.2.
