ODDO BHF SECURITIES MORNING NEWS – DETAILED COMMENTS 04/16/2024

We are initiating coverage of the mining equipment segment with Metso on Outperform, Sandvik on Neutral and Epiroc on Underperform. We have adopted a cautious scenario with demand stable or slightly up in the short term (mining business sales up +3% on average between 2024 and 2026), pending positive signals indicating a rebound in greenfield investments (not before 2027, in our view). In this scenario, we think that Metso should confirm the progress achieved in 2023 (margin improveme...

Better costs and financials

Sika : Start of the year in line

>Q1 2024 sales in line with forecasts - Q1 2024 sales came in at CHF 2.648bn (+0.2% l-f-l and +13.8% in real terms), in line with the consensus (CHF 2.636bn est.) and 3% ahead of our expectations (CHF 2.567bn). We expected a slightly lower contribution from MBCC at 17.3% vs 19.9% reported. L-f-l growth came in at 0.2% after 0.8% in Q4, +1.3% in Q3 and +0.3% in Q2. The working days effect was negative to the tune of -1.5% in Q1. In the EMEA division, Middle East/A...

Ekinops : Mixed results, little visibility, weak growth in Access, dec...

>Q1 2024 revenue down 11% to € 28.3m, missing our expectations - Ekinops published yesterday evening € 28.3m in Q1 revenue, down 11% YoY, missing our expectations (ODDO BHF € 30.3m, -5%) and in line with the trend seen in Q3 and Q4 2023 (€ 27.8m and € 30.3m respectively). The decline was due to a 27% fall in Transport, as a result of: 1/ an unfavourable base effect (+32% a year earlier), 2/ cautious capex policies and 3/ existing operator inventories and 4/ a wait-an...

Fastned : Q1 sequential growth disappoints

>Energy sold in Q1 up 52% y-o-y but slightly below Q4 - Energy sold +52% y-o-y but below Q4. Fastned in 24Q1 grew its energy volume sold by 52% y-o-y to 31.4 GWh, again stronger than the growth in the EV fleet (+43%), but was slightly down from 32.2 GWh in 23Q4 (still +80% y-o-y). On the EV market it expects: “ Prospects for sales in 2024 and beyond remain positive as EV fleet penetration is expected to more than double by 2026 and increase five-fold by 2030.”Act...

Sidetrade : Promising start to the year Solid Q1 and a transformative ...

>Excellent Q1 at all levels, ahead of our expectations on the top line and bookings - Sidetrade this morning reported (ahead of schedule) very good Q1 2024 sales, a shade ahead of our expectations. Quarterly business totalled € 11.8m (vs ODDO BHF € 11.4m), up 20% y-o-y and 15.5% organically (excl. CreditPoint Software). This performance is obviously still driven by SaaS subscriptions (82% of sales), with, essentially, another marked increase in the US (+40%), and in c...

ODDO BHF SECURITIES MORNING NEWS – COMMENTAIRES DETAILLES 16/04/2024

Nous initions le segment des équipementiers miniers avec Metso à Surperformance, Sandvik à Neutre et Epiroc à Sous-performance. Nous adoptons un scénario prudent avec une demande stable ou en légère hausse à court terme (CA des activités minières en hausse moyenne de 3% entre 2024 et 2026), dans l’attente de signaux positifs indiquant un rebond des investissements greenfield (pas avant 2027 selon nous). Dans ce scénario, nous estimons que Metso devrait confirmer les progrès réalisés e...

Technical Analysis/Bund future

We changed our stance from, ‘Selling the rallies' into ‘Buying on weakness' last Friday, but the weekly chart still shows that there is a job to be done. Last week closed slightly higher at 132.50, a rise of 34bp, although there was a lower high at 133.05 and low at 131.31 in relation to the week before., with prices still below the flattening EMA-40 line at 133.54. It is also not ruling out new lows below 131.31 within the bottoming process, although the downside is limited with solid horizont...
