Company Report

High Interest Rates Are Likely to Weigh on Assa Abloy's Organic Sales Growth in 2024

Assa Abloy is the clear global leader in locking and physical access system markets, accounting for about 13% of supplies for the global addressable market—estimated to be worth around USD 100 billion. Assa Abloy’s installed-based business model confers the benefit of significant aftermarket sales—contributing about two thirds of annual revenue at high profit margins. Importantly, we think Assa Abloy’s strategic focus areas—customer relevance, product leadership, and cost-efficiency—work to protect, grow, and optimally monetise the global industry-leading installed base of locking and access systems it has amassed over many decades.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Electromechanical locking system adoption rates are rising. As the global industry leader, Assa Abloy is ideally positioned to capitalise on the consequent expansion of the industry profit pool.

Bears

As Assa Abloy expands its presence in specialised doors—via its entrance systems division—it increases its exposure to a lower-profit-margin, lower-return segment of the market.
