Dynamic Top Pick List Update November: Removing Xior; Adding Aedifica
The tariff war has eased, but with Trump, uncertainty has become a guarantee. While the macro-economic impact has been limited so far, the prolonged situation could still result in significant and long-lasting economic damage. We are maintaining a defensive stance in our Benelux Dynamic Top Pick List. The Federal Reserve (FED) has started its easing cycle, but the final amount of interest rate cuts is uncertain. The European Central Bank (ECB) has now largely completed its interest rate cutting ...

D'Ieteren/A leap of faith for 2H25, concerns for 2026/BUY
We cut our 2025-28F EPS by 4-5% and target price by 5% to €223 on weaker TVH, PHE and Belron as well as lower multiples, in particular at TVH. We still expect 13% FCFev CAGR 2025-28F and 14% EPS CAGR, on 7% EBIT CAGR. The stock has underperformed 17% since 1H25 and is flat YTD, trading at >40% discount, 11x P/E 2026F, 7% FCFev yield. We remain believers in the long-term story, self-help potential (Belron price/mix, cash/commercial markets, mobile static recalibration, TVH turnaround) but admit t...

Dynamic Top Pick List Update October: Removing VGP – Adding Shurgard a...
In this October update of our Dynamic Top Pick List we are removing VGP while adding Shurgard and Wolters Kluwer. Since its recent inclusion in our Dynamic Top Pick List in July-25, VGPs share rose by 10.6%. While we still believe there is significant upside to the share price, we don't see short term catalysts. In fact, the macro picture remains cloudy with the jury still out on the impact of tariffs and the erratic US policy shifts. Also, we are a bit concerned that competition in Western Eur...

D'Ieteren All eyes on Belron in 2H25
Following the publication of D'Ieteren's 1H25 results, we have slightly adjusted our estimates to the downside and currently bank on an FY25 adj. PBT (gs) of € 935m (prev. € 946m). Adjusting for constant exchange rates, our estimates imply a 2.8% growth on a comparable basis, or in line with the group's guidance (slight increase). While our new estimates reflect lower margin assumptions for Belron and TVH Parts, this effect is partially offset by lower financing costs at Belron on the back of fa...

D'Ieteren No room for error in 2H25, with Belron in focus
1H25 results disappointed with the adj. PBT (gs) down 22.7% to € 452.4m (kbcse: € 493m, css: € 475m). Note that on a comparable basis, the adj. PBT (gs) only decreased by 8.7%, but remained below the full year guidance (slight improvement). The miss was driven by a weak performance at TVH Parts, and only modest margin improvement at Belron. While the reiteration of the FY25 outlook implies a big step up in Belron's margins in 2H25, we give the group the benefit of the doubt. This because manage...
