Bergman & Beving (Hold, TP: SEK330.00) - Solid Q3 given the circumstances
The Q3 results were hit by the still-slow underlying market, broadly in line with our expectations but with weaker quality. We have thus reduced our 2024/25–2026/27e EPS by 8–1%. We see potential for a market volume recovery and execution on continued acquisition-based growth. However, after a period with the stock driven by multiples expansion rather than upward forecast momentum, we reiterate our HOLD and SEK330 target price.B&B Tools AB provides the industrial and construction sectors in northern Europe with industrial consumables, industrial components and related services.
