    Revenue Acceleration/Inflection
    • 2025 Guidance and Revenue Focus: The management highlighted an expectation for low to mid-single digit organic growth in the Americas, with nonresidential revenue—especially in institutional verticals (K-12, higher ed, healthcare)—driving the outlook, while residential growth remains challenged by high mortgage rates.
    • Resilient Operations & Competitive Recovery: The company has overcome earlier supply chain issues from the COVID period and is regaining market share lost to larger competitors, signaling a stable operational footing.
    • Accelerating M&A and International Strategy: Allegion is boosting its bolt-on acquisition strategy—citing recent acquisitions in Western Europe—to strengthen its position across key international markets including Germany, Southern Europe, and the APAC region.
    • Electronics and Digital Credential Innovation: Long-term growth is further supported by expanding its electronics portfolio and digital credential platforms, which offer higher per-unit margins and faster replacement cycles.
