In a positive environment, the group targets to deliver strong organic growth of adjusted EBITA in 2018, around the high-end of the +4% to +7% bracket earlier communicated as the average yearly objective for 2017 – 2019. To deliver this strong performance the Group will balance both levers of organic top-line growth and EBITA margin expansion. Therefore, for 2018, the Group will target:
- An organic top-line growth between +3% to +5%
- An organic EBITA margin expansion toward the upper end of the +20 bps to +50 bps range targeted as yearly average improvement for 2017 – 2019
