CECONOMY |NEUTRAL, EUR10.4| Let the Storm Pass

The recent independence gained by Ceconomy has armed it for a recovery that will nevertheless take time to materialise. In the shorter term, numerous risks weighing on 2018 prompt us to remain cautious. We are therefore initiating coverage of Ceconomy with a Neutral recommendation (FV of EUR10.4), despite a high theoretical upside, and continue to favour Fnac Darty (Buy, FV of EUR108), which seems to boast a more suitable business model and better momentum in view of the potential partnerships to expect.

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.
