Sipef - Profit guidance 2024 above our expectations

•    The FY23 net profit was a few million ahead, while the guidance for 2024 of ‘a slightly lower net result' clearly exceeds our estimates. •    The impact of  volcano eruption in PNG is compensated by volume growth in Indonesia. We will increase our FY24/25 net profit by up to USD 10m.•    We stick to our view that SIPEF's valuation is too low (EV/hectare <8K) , given the favorable mid-term outlook for palm oil and lack of new hectares available. Buy reiterated with TP of EUR 74, based on EV/hectare of c. USD 11K.
