Belysse Weak top line in 3Q but adjusted EBITDA is holding up

3Q revenue declined by 7.6%, mainly due to continued weak demand in Europe. Adjusted EBITDA was stable on an organic base and roughly in line with our forecasts, reflecting higher unitary margins. We have kept our FY adjusted EBITDA forecast unchanged whilst slightly lowering our FY25-26 forecasts. We continue to believe Belysse is doing what is necessary to structurally improve profitability whilst visibility on a market recovery is low. Valuation is attractive and prompts us to reiterate our Accumulate rating and € 1.6 target price.
