The less-cyclical, recurring engine — Eliot / Netatmo connected subscriptions, datacenter monitoring & services, Performation & building software and aftermarket / installed-base services; the order book & renewals at risk, and the delivery quality (OTIF / first-pass) behind them.
€193 M of the €1,360 M renewal / order-book wall is flagged at-risk against a €1,400 M software & services base repeating at 112%. Defend the at-risk slice and attach connected / datacenter services across the installed base — subscription retention plus software & services mix is the earnings-quality lever the market values most.
6 of 6 headline metrics improving vs prior · still off target: Software & Services Mix % 15.0% vs 18.0%, Software & Services Revenue €1.4 bn vs €1.7 bn, Connected / Subscription Retention 112.0% vs 115.0%
Each point of attrition on the €1,400 M base is €14 M of software & services revenue gone — far cheaper to retain than to re-win.
Software & services mix 15% sits 3pts below the 18% target; Eliot / Netatmo connected subscriptions is the best economics in the book at 62% GM and 114% retention.
Contracts only renew if delivery holds: on-time delivery (OTIF) 96% sits 2pts under 98% and first-pass quality 98% is 1pts under 99%.
Each lost renewal is recurring software, services & connected revenue that won't repeat.
Software & services revenue is Legrand's less-cyclical engine — €1,400 M across 8,050 active contracts, repeating at 112%. This view is where it's defended: which service lines carry the margin, which are up for renewal and at risk, and whether delivery quality is holding up the promise.
Eliot / Netatmo connected subscriptions is the highest-margin, highest-retention line — the one to attach across the installed base.
Next four quarters of contract / order-book renewals. At-risk = attrition-flagged or contraction-likely.
Defend first: the €193 M at-risk slice. Each point of attrition on the €1,400 M base is €14 M of software & services revenue gone — far cheaper to retain than to re-win.
Software & services mix is 15% vs an 18% target; the gap is connected / services content not yet attached.
Eliot / Netatmo connected subscriptions is the lever: 62% GM and 114% retention — the best economics in the book. Attaching it to existing distributor & datacenter accounts both raises margin and lifts the software & services mix.
Eliot / Netatmo connected subscriptions is the moat: 4,200 sticky contracts — repeat-buying even at lower margin; the foot in the door for cross-family attach.
Contracts only renew if delivery is good — these are the OTIF, first-pass quality & utilization measures behind the order book.
