Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
Strong beat-like signals: 7.2% organic growth, 18.2% Adj EBITA margin, and a tangible $900M synergy target imply higher earnings power and potential multiple expansion. Historically, near-term earnings strength and integration-driven margin gains tend to re-rate shares, though execution risk (integration costs, macro headwinds) remains.
