Umicore CMD feedback

Below are some key highlights from yesterday's CMD. We remind that Umicore announced a € 1-1.2bn adjusted EBITDA target for 2028 with the upside vs our € 0.8bn forecast coming from both Battery Materials as well Catalysis, which is guided to further grow share in the LDV market. We will up our forecasts somewhat following the CMD. Even after yesterday's share rebound, valuation seems attractive and we maintain our Accumulate rating and € 12 target price.
