Belysse FY24 adjusted EBITDA +26%, leverage coming down

FY24 revenue declined by 6.8%, reflecting weak market conditions in Europe and to a lesser extent also the US. Further savings and efficiency improvements, combined with positive mix effects, allowed Belysse to increase the adjusted EBITDA margin by almost 4 percentage points to 15.1% with FY24 adjusted EBITDA up by 26%. The better results and limited capex requirements have allowed to bring net debt/adjusted EBITDA (excl IFRS 16 leases) down to 3.1x. We still consider valuation to be compelling and reiterate our Accumulate rating and € 1.6 target price.
