Vulcan Value Partners made the following comment about Cushman & Wakefield plc (NYSE:CWK) in its second quarter 2023 investor letter:

“Cushman & Wakefield plc (NYSE:CWK) has underperformed both our short-term and long-term expectations. The macro environment, the pace of interest rate hikes, and the pandemic have played significant roles, but we also think that management turnover, with three CEOs in five years, has contributed to this underperformance. Having said that, we continue to believe Cushman & Wakefield possesses a structurally favorable business model, has solid long-term prospects, and is very discounted relative to our estimate of fair value.”
