Veolia: Growth momentum remains even more solid than our initial expectations

Veolia: (BUY, Fair Value EUR22,5 vs. EUR22 (+13%))
Growth momentum remains even more solid than our initial expectations
Following a strong Q1, we confirmed this morning our Buy recommendation on Veolia with a FV slightly increased to EUR22.5/share. Top-line growth momentum remains solid (5.4% organic growth in Q1-2018) while EBITDA growth should progressively catch-up during the rest of the year. All in all, our EPS estimates have been increased by c. 1.2% on average over 2018e-2020e. Veolia’s 12-month forward P/E still trades at c. 15% discount vs. its 5-year historical average while 1/top-line growth momentum have never been that strong since end-2010-early-2011; 2/despite a slight slowdown in the past few months, the macro remains supportive and 3/the group’s balance sheet remains sound.

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.
