Corbion FIRST LOOK: 1Q Core EBITDA +18.5% organ., FY guidance slightly raised

1Q23 Core adj EBITDA jumped by 18.5% organically to € 41.6m which was slightly better than consensus and above KBCS forecasts. FY organic core adj EBITDA growth guidance was raised to the upper end of the 15-20% range. We still appreciate Corbion for the combination of an intrinsically defensive food ingredients business, a market leading technology position (gypsum free LA soon being rolled out), above average LT growth potential (driven by PLA) and a top notch ESG profile. Accumulate and 38 TP kept.
