Thomson Reuters: Buy The Dip On This Wide-Moat Business

Summary Thomson Reuters is rated a 'Buy' after the recent dip, offering value and a 3% dividend yield. TRI's moat is built on proprietary content, deeply embedded workflows, and AI-enabled products, making disruption from agentic AI overblown. Management guides for 7.5%-8% organic revenue growth and 100 bps EBITDA margin expansion in 2026, with strong capital returns and balance sheet. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Thomson Reuters: A Buy As Earnings And Outlook Exceed Expectations

Summary Thomson Reuters achieved a +4% bottom line beat for Q3 2024, as its major business segments performed well. TRI's outlook is favorable, as the company revised its 2024 organic revenue growth guidance upwards and expressed confidence in achieving its 2025 and 2026 financial targets. I remain positive on Thomson Reuters, considering that the company's third quarter earnings and full-year organic revenue growth outlook were better than expected.

Summary Thomson Reuters' EPS expanded by +30.5% YoY to $1.11 for Q1 2024, which was equivalent to a +16.6% earnings beat. TRI also raised the company's full-year top line growth guidance by +25 basis points to +6.75%. I see no reasons to change my existing Buy rating for the stock, taking into account the recent beat-and-raise quarter. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Thomson Reuters: Good Results And Positive Outlook Support A Buy Rating

Summary Thomson Reuters' normalized EPS grew by +31% YoY to $0.98 in Q4 2023, and this was +8% better than the market's expectations. The company expects to report a +6.5% increase in its top line this year, which is superior to its actual FY 2022 top line expansion of +3%. I still rate Thomson Reuters stock as a buy in view of its recent quarterly earnings beat, and the company's favorable financial prospects. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Thomson Reuters: Organic Growth Stabilizing, But Still Expensive

Summary Thomson Reuters' revenue growth fell short of expectations, but EBITDA margins and EPS beat estimates. I have a target price of $105 for TRI based on a 15-year DCF model. The good news is TRI's largest segments showed signs of stability, and there are positive drivers for future growth, including AI capabilities and recent acquisitions.

Thomson Reuters: Favorable Takeaways From Recent Investor Event Participation

Summary TRI boasts strong pricing power and a meaningful proportion of multiyear contracts. Thomson Reuters' future financial performance could surpass market expectations, assuming that it can take advantage of growth opportunities emerging from the Generative AI wave. I have left my Buy rating for TRI unchanged, considering positive takeaways from the company management's comments and disclosures at the recent JPMorgan investor event.
