Ekopak Sharing is Multiplying but Uncertainty Persists around Large Pr...
Ekopak's FY25 results, while showing tighter cost discipline, were overshadowed by the withdrawal of the EPICO infrastructure fund from the Waterkracht project—creating the risk of significant operational delays or even full project loss. Although a new partnership with an infrastructure fund is intended to finance large WaaS installations through off balance sheet SPVs, the first joint project award is yet to be announced. With Waterkracht removed from our numbers, valuation remains demanding, ...

Ekopak Delivery Waterkracht permit and Dutch wastewater plant acquisit...
Yesterday evening an article was published in the local Antwerp newspaper GVA. It stated Flemish Minister of the Environment Jo Brouns (CD&V) has granted a permit for the Waterkracht project. As a result, all chemical companies in the Port of Antwerp will use purified wastewater to cool their production processes starting at the end of 2027. Earlier on the target was to start commercial operations early 2027 and this is still reflected in our earnings model. We will overhaul our model once it is...

As part of the pa...

Ekopak First look: 1H25 disappoints, cautious outlook, no update on Wa...
1H25 revenues landed at €21.7m considerably below our €36m estimate. Adj. EBITDA stands at €-3.8m compared to our €+3.5m forecast. Segment reporting has changed and company no longer reports WaaS and non-WaaS but now differentiates the numbers between project and recurring business. FY25 guidance was issued and cautiously calls for growth in turnover vs. 2024. The 2025 outlook does not include any projections for Waterkracht on which the company will issue a separate update when relevant. Compan...

Ekopak Surprising press release triggers sell off
Following December's profit warning, Ekopak again astounded the markets yesterday by announcing an approximate €8m revenue restatement of its recently published FY24 numbers.

Additionally, the company is investigating balance sheet strengthening measures, which will likely result in a dilutive capital i...

Ekopak Restatement FY24, balance sheet to be strengthened
After trading was suspended for two days, Ekopak issued a statement announcing the restatement of the FY24 figures published early March. The restatement is linked to reversed revenue recognition linked to Waterkracht. During the FY24 analyst call, management stated no material one-off equipment/engineering sales linked to either Waterkracht or Circeaulair were in the numbers. Hence the material €8m downwards revenue revision comes as a complete surprise. The company further acknowledges that a ...
