Q3 sales up 36%, annual target easily achievable - strong year-end business expected

JDC Group AG (ISIN DE000A0B9N37, Open Market, JDC GY) shows strong business development in a challenging macroeconomic environment - although Q3 (vacation quarter) tends to be seasonally weaker. Revenues increased by 36.1% to € 52.1 million, EBITDA (€ 2.3 million; +41%) and EBIT (€ 0.76 million; > 300%) increased disproportionately, the Q3 consolidated result turned positive (€ 0.28 million; Q3 23: € -0.36 million). The operating margin in Q3 is still depressed by one-off effects (auditor costs, Top Ten integration, severance payments). Scaling is therefore taking effect, while at the same time intense competition is weighing on margins (effect currently around 0.5% p.a.). As a fast-growing company with a highly scalable business model, JDC is favorably valued with an EV/Sales2025 of only 1.17 (peer group median: 3.6).

Equally weighted, our DCF and Peer Group analysis results in a Fair Value per share of € 27.45. We reiterate our “Buy“ rating.
