Ayvens : The EV residual value issue remains but the risk/return ratio looks favourable: Outperform vs Neutral, target price € 12 vs € 6

Although the uncertainty surrounding EV residual values has not disappeared, this risk is now less critical thanks to the conservative pricing policy adopted since the end of 2023, versus an EPS CAGR of +24% over 2024-2027. Coupled with the successful execution of synergies, we have significantly upgraded our target price to € 12 from € 6.0 (lower cost of capital) and our rating to Outperform from Neutral.
