Fugro Securing $340m multi-year subsea inspection contracts with Petro...

Last Friday Fugro reported it has secured four Petrobras contracts for subsea inspection and monitoring in Brazil, valued at approximately $340m over four years starting in 4Q25 with optional one-year extensions. Three contracts are renewals under improved terms, while one is new and incremental. All were already included in Fugro's 12-month backlog as of March 2025. Each contract is vessel-specific, with two operated by Fugro and two by partners, all equipped with ROVs. The scope includes expan...

Fugro/Weak 1H25, better 2H25/BUY

Led by the disappearance of US offshore wind, Fugro continues to suffer from a downturn. We expect a weak second quarter, following the headwinds of the first quarter with lower activity levels combined with a couple of vessels not yet back into service. We foresee a YoY EBIT decline of 50% in 2Q25. However, it also looks the trough is passed with potential for a higher activity level for 2H25 and beyond. The main reason is the higher fleet presence and clients finally proceeding with long-await...

Utilities and offshore wind supply chain sector/Mind the gaps

In this report we present our view on the long-term growth prospects for offshore wind in Europe, implications of the energy transition and the role of TSOs, such as Elia Group. We also focus on supply chain beneficiaries in our Benelux coverage. An increasing number of long-term framework contracts should provide improved risk-rewards to the supply chain, in our view. Furthermore, we take a deep dive into growth drivers and long-term financing for Elia Group, beyond the company's current financ...

Dollar Weakness The impact on our Benelux Coverage

In general, a weaker USD has a negative impact on Benelux stocks, particularly for companies with significant exports to the US. In this note we selected a list of companies with high US export exposure and we examine the potential impact on FY25 earninings. On top of the weak dollar, rising trade tensions or the introduction of tariffs further harm Benelux exporters. As the dollar depreciates against the euro, European goods become costlier for American consumers. At the same time, revenues ear...

Dynamic Top Pick List Update May 2025: Removing Fugro – Adding Merus

The ongoing tariff war continues to create uncertainty for investors, with a trade embargo between the US and China. Although Europe has received a temporary reprieve, the prolonged situation could result in significant economic damage. We are maintaining a defensive stance in our Benelux Dynamic Top Pick List, as the Federal Reserve holds steady and the European Central Bank may continue lowering rates. Pessimism regarding the European industry has increased, though some US-based European compa...

Fugro/Weakening outlook… but very cheap/BUY

The preliminary 1Q25 update showed an 11% revenue decline and collapse of EBIT margins. However, it also included some particular comments that we read as warnings for a rapid deterioration of overall business conditions, beyond the disappearance of US offshore wind that was already known. With this outlook, we have lowered our estimates substantially. However, the share price has more than halved since summer 2024 and multiples have reached all-time lows at c.2.5x average EV/EBITDA25-27F. This,...
