AMAG confirmed at HOLD, TP EUR 36 - Model update: Raising FY 22e post strong Q2

AMAG released sound Q2 results where a better than expected underlying earnings generation was masked by negative one-off effects
The management gave a more optimistic FY 22 EBITDA guidance of EUR 220-250 mn, up from the post-Q1 outlook of above EUR 200 mn
With the top end of the range implying a flat H2 yoy and thus baking in quite a slowdown vs. H1 we think the company can over-deliver. We continue to assume that AMAGs earnings will peak in the current year.
Given AMAGs high domestic energy consumption, interruptions of the Russian gas deliveries to Austria currently pose the main risk to the investment case
We maintain the HOLD recommendation and have trimmed the target price to EUR 36 from EUR 38.5
