Lotus Bakeries Bake Baby Bake

We updated our model after Lotus Bakeries achieved in FY24 significant double-digit growth of almost 15.9% to € 1,232m. The organic growth in FY24 was driven almost exclusively by record volume growth.


We maintain our DCF backed € 10 750 Target Price but -after the recent share price weakness- we increase our rating to Accumulate as the growth strategies of Lotus Biscoff and Lotus Natural Foods will further drive the ambition to become a global top 3 cookie and a leader in the better-for-you snacking segment.


Lotus Bakeries also announced it has integrated the ice-cream category into its existing licensing agreement with Mondelez, opening doors to the leading pure play ice-cream manufacturer, Froneri. Lotus Bakeries claims that this strategic partnership between them and Froneri will allow the Lotus Biscoff brand to grow even faster in the ice-cream segment.
