Van de Velde FIRST LOOK - OK 2H25 but impairment at Top Form

After a challenging first half of the year, Van de Velde returned to revenue growth in 2H25, driven by lingerie sales. Van de Velde indicated that the renewal of its assortment and the further expansion of the Direct-to-Consumer segment to strengthen brand experience are beginning to bear fruit in both the summer and winter seasons. This also translated into higher 2H26EBITDA. Recall that in 1H25 EBITDA decreased due to lower sales in Swim and the impact of US tarifs. The good 2H25 was countered by a € 9.6m impairment at Top Form. They believe their strategy will provide a solid foundation for 2026. We maintain our Accumulate and € 38.5 TP.
