CEO Departure and Profit Warnings: Worldline's CEO Gilles Grapinet is leaving the company following its third profit warning in a year, which has led to a significant drop in share prices, now down about 92% since July 2021. Deputy CEO Marc-Henri Desportes will take over as interim CEO starting September 30.
Investor Reactions and Future Outlook: Investors are hopeful that the new leadership will drive organic growth, despite the company's revised expectations for revenue growth and EBITDA, along with ongoing cost-saving measures due to weaker trading performance.
