SPV hits the ground running

Axactor reported Q3 results that were slightly below consensus expectations with a net profit of EUR0.3m, vs consensus at EUR1.3m and our estimate of EUR1.6m. The deviation was a result of somewhat weaker results on most revenue lines and slightly higher costs. However, we believe consensus 2018-2019 EPS estimate will be fairly unchanged on the back of the Q3 result, given the minor size of the miss. Axactor also announces a NPL acquisition in Spain with a purchasing price of around EUR60-70m, composed of a mix of secured, unsecured and Real Estate Owner claims, of which the majority of the NPL size will be allocated to the newly established SPV.
