Epiroc (Hold, TP: SEK220.00) - No earnings growth in 2025e

We have downgraded Epiroc to HOLD (BUY). We still believe in stronger end markets for the Tools & Attachment division in H2, and for gradual underlying earnings improvement, but lack confidence it will improve stock sentiment in a macro-focused environment. We expect no earnings growth YOY in 2025e, after lowering our 2025–2027e adj. EBIT by c9% on average (mainly due to FX) and are now c10% below post-Q4 consensus. We have lowered our target price to SEK220 (240).

Set for spicy growth

Our recent field trip to India (visiting Volvo, Epiroc, Trelleborg, Autoliv and others) alongside our analysis suggests the country is set to take centre stage as a global manufacturing hub over the coming decade, shifting from being the sixth- to the third-largest end-market for the Swedish Industrial sector. India’s strong economic growth trajectory and favourable demographics mean the companies: 1) see double-digit growth as sustainable; 2) are pursuing manufacturing capacity expansions; and ...

The hard rock bustle

Our review of 12 major miners’ guidance suggests 6% YOY capex growth in 2025, with growth project capex up 23%. Copper remains a key investment priority, accounting for c35% of miners’ capex, driven by global megatrends and supply constraints. This is particularly supportive for our BUY names: Metso (32% copper exposure), Epiroc (28%), and FLSmidth (21%), while Sandvik (HOLD) also stands to benefit, although its large metal-cutting tools business reduces its direct copper exposure to 12%.

Who stands to benefit?

A potential peace deal between Russia and Ukraine could unlock one of the largest reconstruction efforts in modern history. The World Bank estimates Ukraine will need USD486bn in rebuilding efforts over the next decade, but we estimate this would add only c2% to annual European construction spending. While the direct earnings effect may be modest, we expect the “rebuild Ukraine theme” to drive investor sentiment. We see Volvo, Epiroc, Hexagon, Metso, Hiab and ABB as some of the primary beneficia...

Epiroc (Buy, TP: SEK240.00) - Mining strong, T&A dragging along

Equipment & Service ended 2024 solidly, with orders and sales up 5–6% organically YOY and the guidance of mining demand to remain strong. However, the Tools & Attachment (T&A) margin weakened further, with unquantified one-offs making it hard to assess the underlying run-rate. However, we remain confident in stronger end markets for T&A and for the cost actions to show effect through 2025e, and reiterate our BUY. We have raised our target price to SEK240 (230), but lowered our 2025–2026e adj. EB...

ODDO : 2025 : potentiellement un meilleur cru que 2024

L’année 2025 verra, selon nous, une poursuite de la croissance du CA (5% estimé vs 1.5% en 2024e) et de l’amélioration de la marge (53 pb vs 14 pb en 2024e), à l’exception possible de quelques sociétés (marge optimisée ou risque lié aux hausses des droits de douane). Si quelques thématiques devraient rester inchangées (exposition USA, Green Capex, datacenters, etc), d’autres émergeront (construction, discrete automation) ou accélèreront (semiconducteurs) au cours de l’année. Dans ce contexte, no...

ODDO : 2025: set to potentially be a better year than 2024

2025 is in our view likely to see sales continue to grow (5% estimated vs 1.5% in 2024e) and margins continue to improve (53bp vs 14bp in 2024e), with the possible exception of a few companies (optimised margins or tariff risk). While some themes are likely to endure (US exposure, green capex, data centres, etc.), others will emerge (construction, discrete automation) or accelerate (semiconductors) over the year. In this context, our Top Picks are Alstom, Assa Abloy, Siemens and SKF. And we upgr...
