BASLER: The current share price fully values Basler’s potential | NEUTRAL vs BUY | EUR33

BASLER - NEUTRAL vs BUY | EUR33 (-5%)
The current share price fully values Basler’s potential

The decline in new orders came earlier than expected due to Chinese lockdown effects, confirming our initial scenario for weakening demand and increasing supply throughout late-FY22e and early-FY23e. We expect no change in sales estimates for FY22e (EUR266m) as well as new orders. However, we revise downwards our profitability estimates (FY22e gross margin and PBT margin revised -1pt) as the group built significant inventories at high prices in H1 2022 to hedge against further supply disruption. With the Basler share price jumping 30% since we initiated coverage, we believe the markets have now fully priced in its potential. We downgrade our Rating to Neutral vs Buy, TP of EUR33 unchanged.

Since 1996, Bryan, Garnier & Co has been growing with an absolute conviction that the investment banking landscape would experience a major revolution: most of the large local generalist banking groups will disappear to the benefit of a handful of global powerhouses, and an emerging group of independent, highly specialised boutique investment banks.
