Bunzl shares drop 5% as Jefferies warns of weaker H2 margins despite Q3 revenue beat

Bunzl PLC shares fell up to 5% after the company confirmed its full-year guidance despite better-than-expected 4% revenue growth in Q3. Jefferies noted the organic growth was solid but flagged that margins are expected to decline in the second half of 2026 after a margin improvement in the first half. Bunzl expects modest revenue growth and a flat operating margin around 8%, with net finance costs and tax rate guidance unchanged. The cautious outlook on margins led to the share price dip, though shares recovered some losses later in the day.

Bunzl shares and trading update context are provided with Pluang's Industrials sector data as of Oct 20, 2026 13:51 WIB. Among 135 priced US Industrials stocks on Pluang, 44 rose and 86 fell today.
