Corbion FIRST LOOK: FY25 EBITDA +27% organ., FY26 margin guidance of 17%
FY25 adj EBITDA increased by 27% organically and was close to our and consensus forecasts. FY26 guidance of a c. 100bps adj EBITDA margin improvement to around 17% is no surprise (KBCS 16.7%, CSS 16.9%). We remind that Corbion is conducting a strategic review on PLA which we believe will most likely result in an exit of Corbion, while still remaining the lactic acid supplier to the buyer. Biochemicals will be de-emphasized, which will put the growth focus on food preservation and formulation, algal oils and Biomedical Polymers/Pharma. We continue to appreciate Corbion for its market leadership in lactic acid and growth opportunities within the existing portfolio. We continue to believe valuation is undemanding and we reiterate our BUY rating with € 26 target price.Corbion is an internationally operating company engaged in the development, production, sale and distribution of bakery supplies and food ingredients.
