Valmet (Buy, TP: EUR32.00) - Solid beats in ‘stable businesses’

We have made only minor estimate changes following the Q1 results, and reiterate our BUY and EUR32 target price. We continue to find the valuation attractive at a 2026e EV/EBIT of below 9x.

Valmet (Buy, TP: EUR32.00) - Mixed Q4, with Services shining

We have cut our 2025–2026e clean EPS by c3% on average due to the Q4 earnings miss, our lower capital profitability forecast, and our higher financial cost estimates. We continue to believe the valuation is attractive, and reiterate our BUY and EUR32 target price.

Quality rise warrants multiples uplift

Our analysis shows that Finnish industrials have improved their earnings quality over the past 10 years, supported by expanding Service profitability and shares of total sales and earnings. We believe this together with improved stability, visibility and financials should be better rewarded in the valuations. We have a positive sector stance and highlight Konecranes, Metso and Valmet on potential multiples expansion.
