Dynamic Top Pick List Update September: Adding AB InBev and Exor
In this September update we added 2 stocks to the KBC Securities Dynamic Top Pick List : We added AB InBev after the share price weakened post-2Q results. ABI's 2Q volumes fell 1.9% organically, below expectations, mainly due to a 9% drop in Brazil where a price hike led to temporary market share loss. However, strong revenue per hl growth (+4.9%) drove a 6.5% organic EBITDA increase, with 1H growth at +7.2%, near the top of FY guidance (+4–8%). AB InBev, the world's largest brewer, generates ...

Azelis/Rough patch but fundamentals intact/BUY
We update our model and lower our target price to €21 per share from €22 previously, to reflect recent results. We reiterate our BUY as the medium-term growth fundamentals of the specialty chemicals distribution model are seen intact, even though the industry is currently moving through a rough patch.

Azelis Weak results are anticipated, limited downside risk
Since our last update, the market has experienced a wave of profit warnings and significant FX volatility. As a result, we find it necessary to revise our estimates. We are lowering our adjusted EBITA forecast from €471m to €451m, primarily due to adverse FX movements. Furthermore, we decrease our GPm expectations for the Americas. We anticipated that improvements in the F&F segment would support margin expansion in 2Q25, the combination of FX headwinds, macroeconomic uncertainty, and unfavourab...

Azelis/2Q25 preview: Don't expect a trend change yet/BUY
We lower expectations ahead of Azelis' 2Q25 results, driven by the prevailing uncertainty regarding trade and tariffs, especially in North America, and adverse FX trends. Our BUY stands, on a revised target price of €22 (previously €25), given Azelis's compelling valuation discount of c.30% relative to IMCD for a broadly similar medium-term growth dynamic and margin profile.
