scope effect
Explanation:
You can use this shorthand phrase *if* you have a previous mention of "scope of consolidation" to establish the context.
Typically, you won't see this 'effet' unless the analyst is also apportioning the change in revenue or earnings to other effects, such as "price effect", "currency effect", "organic growth effect", and so on.
And "changes-in-consolidation effect" (which is what it means) is a bit unwieldy.

agree  Conor McAuley: This is along the right lines. It's about comparing like with like, year on year growth, so acquisitions do not count as organic growth
