Elis SA: Key Bond Bouncing Off Peer Level

CREDIT UPDATE
Cross-asset moves: Elis SA (ELIS FP), the support services firm, is one of the better equity performers today (+3.1% vs. SXXP +1.0%) yet its liquid '25 bond ZR767015 Corp is one of the weakest performers in IG bond index (OAS +13bp).

  1. Equity is making new 12M highs, up 89% since the October lows alone, yet the OAS has widened 13bp (to c.74bp).
  2. There's no fundamental news out there today, it announced a small acquisition yesterday (Moderna - not the healthcare co - which largely comprises one industrial laundry facility) which doesn't appear material.
  3. Its move today appears to widen the gap down to Rentokil's comparable bond (see image), a level it's failed to breach twice in the last year.
