Tessenderlo Conference call feedback

Below are the highlights from the conference call. Tessenderlo posted much weaker than expected FY23 results with adjusted EBITDA down about 32% y/y (on a proforma basis) and c 15% below our and 16% below consensus. Key shortfalls were in BioValorization and the Machines & Technologies divisions. The FY24 calls for flat adjusted EBITDA which is about 27% below our and consensus forecasts. Tessenderlo is a very diversified group with limited synergies between the various operations. We consider valuation to be attractive but the poor FY23 results and FY24 guidance is clearly a disappointment. We will lower our forecasts but decided to maintain our Accumulate rating on the back of the attractive valuation.
