Talgo will report its 1Q17 results on 11th May before the opening, followed by a conference call on the same day at 14:00h CET.
We are expecting –11% sales, continuing the trend seen in the last four quarters. The Saudi contract should generate the majority of sales. The two contracts recently announced (LACTMA and Renfe) ought to start generating sales later in the year. A cost overrun in Russia saw the EBITDA margin dipping to average 18.6% in 2016 and expect this to edge back up to 20% in 1Q17e. We estimate €27mn (–11%) EBITDA, €22mn (-13%) EBIT and €16mn (–11%) Net profit.
Talgo has spent €2.2mn as part of a €10mn share buy back programme, a move that is underpinning the share price (+28.1% YTD absolute, +9.6% relative to the Ibex 35 index). Recent corporate developments in the sector also support this performance. We recommend to Buy with a €5.88 target price.
