Dynamic Top Pick List Update November 2024 – Adding Azelis – Removing ...
With 2 changes in our Dynamic Top Pick list (we add Azelis and we remove Solvay) we maintain a defensive stance on the market for 2H24. The long anticipated interest rate cuts by central banks have finally started. The Trump election victory in the US does not bode well for European stocks as he favours a protectionist course. Although industrial companies with a US base could actually benefit. Cleantech names with exposure to the US could also suffer (unless owned by E.Musk). We expect the US ...

D'Ieteren Update on financing costs
This morning, D'Ieteren group provided an update on its financing costs after raising € 1.0bn in bank loans at the group level, hereby completing the final piece of the puzzle. In total, the refinancing will be a roughly € 30m headwind in FY24, mainly related to the additional charges at Belron (11 weeks impact), while the impact for the increased group debt & PHE refinancing will be marginal. D'Ieteren further mentioned that the charges are excluded from the mid-to-high single digit adj. PBT (...

Dynamic Top Pick List Update October 2024 – Adding NN Group
We maintain a defensive stance on the market for 2H24. The long anticipated expectations for interest rate cuts by central banks will finally come to pass. The election fever in the US is reaching boiling point and the conversations are becoming more polarised than before. Also corporate profit growth in Europe slows and the French elections have cast a negative spell. In Germany by-elections in the Eastern part showed a shift to extreme right and left that will make budget decisions even more ...

We refresh our ING Benelux Favourites list. We still apply a fundamental bottom up approach in which we select stocks that provide the best (relative) upside within our Benelux coverage universe and these stocks need clear catalysts. Besides this, we screen our ING Benelux coverage universe on some key investment themes that are topical and which could affect earnings potential and thus a stock's share price performance: (1) interest rate/refinancing opportunity in a lower rates environment; (2)...

D'Ieteren/Digesting the deal, we see a nice entry point/BUY
The shares have underperformed >15% since the announcement of the family transaction and €4bn dividend, €74 per share. We think this is excessive. The shares imply that: (1) all shareholders price in the maximum 30% withholding tax despite a majority not paying it; and (2) the ‘remainco' discount is up from 30% to c.45%. Tax aside, post dividend, the ‘remainco' will trade at >50% discount. Post dividend, there is >70% upside to our new €196 target price, which factors in a 20% discount, up from ...
