ASM International Upside on FY26 estimates already reflected in the valuation

We provide more colour in this note on our change in TP and recommendation following ASMi FY25 results, which were good given the improved outlook. We see upside on the FY26 estimates, yet expectations for FY27 are already high and leave little room for upside, while the valuation is also above the historical average. We derive a fair value of €658 p.s. based on our FY27 diluted EPS of € 22.1 and a PE multiple of 30x. Given the downside we reduced our recommendation this morning from Accumulate to Hold and see this as an opportunity for some profit taking.
