NEINOR HOMES: 1Q’20 RESULTS AND CHANGE OF T.P. TO UNDER REVISION (ANÃLISIS BANCO SABADELL)
1Q'20 vs. 1Q'19 Results
Sales: € 50.5 M (-16.7%);
EBITDA: € 7.9 M (+9.7%);
Net Profit: € 3.9 M (+69.6%);
At yesterday’s market close, the company released 1Q’20 Results with a -17% drop in revenues as a result of the -12% decline in home development revenues (on lower home deliveries). The gross margin in home development fell -2pp to 28% although EBITDA grew +10% thanks to higher margins in Servicing and lower Legacy asset sales (with a zero or even negative contribution margin).
Pre-sales totalled 353 units over the period (300 units adjusted for cancellations), and thus, the pre-sales/deliveries coverage improves +5pp vs. Dec’19: 2020-75%/2021-45%/2022-25% (as of Dec’19 2020-70%/2021-40%/2022-20%).
We play down the relevance of the drop in deliveries, as it is due to a timing effect throughout the year compared with the past (it should be offset by more deliveries in the rest of quarters). The pre-sales figure, adjusted for cancellations, is below the level we estimate it needs to meet our short and medium-term expectations (around 300 units vs. 500-550 units on a quarterly basis), although this is not a surprise, as March was hit by the health crisis. Pre-sales totalled 64 units in April.
We place our T.P. Under Revision (€ 13.86/sh. previously), in view of the new situation after Covid-19 (€ 13.86/sh. previously). Although we do not see momentum in the short and medium-term, we reiterate our BUY recommendation as the share price already factors in a sufficiently adverse scenario. In our scenario of V-shaped recovery, our T.P. would stand at levels of 10-11x. BUY. Target Price: Under Revision.
