D'Ieteren The engine that keeps on running

D'Ieteren's engine keeps on running, with the adj. PBT (gs) up 28.1% in 2023, driven by a strong performance at Belron, Auto, and the full consolidation of PHE. Going forward, we expect the adj. PBT (gs) to grow 9% in 2024, and to accelerate to +15.7% in 2025 driven by the completion of the transformation programme at Belron. With D'Ieteren trading at only 13.9x the adj. fwd P/E, we believe investors are not giving D'Ieteren enough credit for its excellent track record and growth prospects. In addition, we expect further upstream dividends from Belron and Auto to boost the group's net cash position to over € 3bn by 2026. Based on our new SOTP valuation of € 288ps and a 10% discount, we reiterate our Buy rating and increase our TP from € 225 to € 260ps.
