Thrace Plastics - First-half momentum accelerates in Q3

Building on an impressive H1 performance, Thrace produced some record quarterly achievements in margins and profitability for both Technical Fabrics and Packaging in Q3. We are again raising our earnings estimates significantly given this strong business momentum. Thrace’s share price has performed well this year but, in the context of current profit levels and based on our DCF, the valuation appears to be far too low.

Thrace Plastics | Resilient in a precarious backdrop

Protracted low demand makes a challenging near-term backdrop… – Subdued demand has aggravated the near-term challenges for the group, as was evident in the H1’23 results, with group turnover -15% yoy and underlying EBITDA (adjusted for PPE products profitability in H1’22) down by a lower c5% yoy to €24m (-20% reported). The revenue drop was driven by both lower volumes and pricing (caused by raw materials price fall), with the protracted slow demand further exacerbated by the effect from the tough comparative. That said, the underlying performance of the group is better than the optics suggest...

Thrace Group - Resilient business model in a challenging market

Thrace Group’s Q123 results highlight continued growth in underlying adjusted EBITDA (excluding personal protective equipment (PPE) related products), as it increased by 4% and 22% compared to Q122 and Q120 (pre-PPE boost) respectively. Despite a modest drop in Q123 volumes of 4%, management anticipates sustained continuing profitability in Q223. Management expects H123 EBITDA from the traditional portfolio to be in line with previous years’ levels at around €25m, which is consistent with our forecasts, which remain unchanged. As mentioned in our recent note, we value the company at €8.23 per ...

Information Services Corporation - Strong underlying growth, guidance reiterated

Information Services Corporation’s (ISC’s) Q124 results highlight the strength of the underlying business, with topline and adjusted EBITDA growth of 15% and 34%, respectively, augmented by the sustained organic growth of the Services division and CPI fee adjustments. This progress was made less obvious at the statutory net income level by increases in interest costs and share-based compensation expenses of C$5.0m and C$5.8m, respectively. FY24 guidance has been reiterated, and we maintain our forecasts and valuation of C$40/share, implying 58% upside.

Zalaris - Continuing contract momentum in FY24

Zalaris reported its ninth consecutive quarter of year-on-year revenue growth in Q124, up to a record NOK318m.
