RECTICEL: Acquisition of insulation panel producer Trimo REC BB

The acquisition of Trimo for an EV of € 164.3m marks an entry into the Insulation panels market, while offering geographical diversification into CEE as well as technology diversification into mineral wool. The acquisition of Trimo is certainly a step towards Recticel’s recently expressed ambition to double its Insulation business by 2025. We consider the multiple paid for Trimo (9.5x EV/REBITDA21) to be quite reasonable and stick to our Accumulate rating, while raising our target price from € 20 to € 21.
