Agfa Radiology in the fog, But HealthCare IT has a clear cloud vision

We have revised our model following a soft 1Q25 performance in Radiology Solutions, contrasted by continued strong momentum in Agfa's HealthCare IT division—fuelled by growing customer adoption of its cloud-based technologies. While the Digital Printing Solutions equipment segment faced headwinds from ongoing economic uncertainty, and demand for Agfa's Zirfon membranes for green hydrogen production slowed in Europe and North America, the company maintains a positive long-term outlook for both businesses.


We maintain our Accumulate rating and € 1.40 Target Price, reflecting our view that Agfa is proactively tackling the decline in traditional film markets through its cost optimization program, with initial savings anticipated in the second half of 2025.
