We see the potential closing of the divestment of Offset Solutions as well as the continued growth of Zirfon as two key positives for the longer term. We believe all this is already ...
Following a seasonally weaker 1Q24, 2Q24 revenues remained stable at 286m (beating our €270 and CSS € 285m) based on the resurgence of sales for the Digital Printing Solutions growth engine.

EBIT going into negative territory• With operational gearing being negative, debt is returning on the balance sheet and now seems to result in Agfa announcing leasing as a way to hoard cash• Despite ST uncertainty, based on the expected positive earnings momentum, future growth prospects with growth engines starting to deliver and the upside to the current share price , we reiterate our BUY rating
