软件及IT服务行业2026年展望:迷雾背后,盈利可期

Software & IT Services 2026Outlook Every Cloud Has an Earnings Lining 2025 was challenging for the Software & IT Services sectors as the AI disruptionnarrative engulfed the group, resulting in the sector underperforming Europeanequities by >20%. In many cases, this has been driven by P/E valuation multiplesde-rating (e.g. SAP ~38x to ~29x, DSY ~24x to ~17x, SGE ~29x to ~21x, AMS~21x to ~18x, NEM ~46x to ~39x & CAP ~13x to ~11x). In order to find absolutedownside to much of our coverage over a ~2 year horizon in light of the earningsgrowth we expect (>10% 2 year EPS CAGR), we would need to assume thatmultiples de-rate an incremental 20%+ from here over the next ~2 years. Ourcurrent forecasts relative to consensus do not support a view that would warrantsuch an incremental de-rating at this point. Hence, whilst sector sentiment likelyremains clouded near-term due to AI, and we are cutting PTs ~5-10% on averagedue to lower target multiples across our core coverage, we do see modest upsideto share prices on a multi-year view as a result of ~2 years worth of compoundedearnings growth. Companies where we have particular bottom-up convictioninclude SAP(OW and place on +ve CW; AFL) and Temenos (OW) in Software andComputacenter (OW) and Softcat (Upgrading to OW) in the Resellers. ExcludingSAP and Temenos, our PTs across our large-cap coverage reflect on average >10%upside over a ~2 year horizon, which reflects a modest level of upside consistentwith our balance of ratings and selective conviction. We remove Sage from ourAFL (though we maintain OW) and reduce our PT by >10% as the AI risk narrativeis more acute in the SMB space, and reinitiate coverage on Capgemini at Neutralgiven an uncertain outlook for the steady-state growth and margin profile due toAI. We place Dassault Systemes (N) on -ve CW into FY25 results as we think themarket may struggle to underwrite much acceleration built into the ‘26 guidance.We remain cautious on Nemetschek (UW) given downside to consensus growth.
