Texaf Solid start of the year with +4.4% revenue growth

In 1Q26, TEXAF delivered a solid start to the year with group revenue up +4.4% despite an unstable geopolitical environment in the DRC whose operational impact remained limited so far. Real estate, the core driver, held steady at €7.7m thanks to rent indexation that offset a modest seasonal dip in occupancy. The quarry segment rebounded strongly with revenue up +49% to €1.1m after a weak comparable period. Digital continued to build momentum with service revenues +22% to €0.3m and high occupancy at Silikin Village. The newly created Property Development segment confirmed first home sales at Jardins de Kinsuka from 2Q26. TEXAF's euro-denominated rental model with high-quality tenants continues to demonstrate resilience, while the development pipeline supports longer-term growth. We maintain our BUY rating and €45.0 target price.
