Roularta FIRST LOOK - 1H23 revenue and profit under pressure

Roularta's 1H23 revenues were down 6.0% y/y to € 159m mainly due to a difficult advertising and readership market. In addition, higher paper, energy and personnel charges caused EBITDA to fall from €17.8m to € 8.4m.
We lower our Target Price from € 24 to €21 as Roularta's 1H23 revenue and profit were under pressure due to increased costs and economic uncertainty. We maintain our Accumulate rating as we see potential in Roularta announced additional investment in development of digital package (bundle) that could offer prospects.
