GBL/Model update post 1Q25 results/BUY
We are updating our sum-of-the-parts model following the 1Q25 release, showing a NAV that came out slightly higher than anticipated. GBL's unlisted valuations rose by 5% YTD versus our assumption of a 5% YTD decline. For context, the LPX Private Equity index (LPX 50 TR Index) we are using to get a feel for the evolution of the valuation of the unlisted assets that are held within GBL Capital declined by 10% over the quarter. Our update model shows a NAV of €15.1bn or €113.00 per share, implying ...

GBL Analyst Call Feedback, New CEO Presentation
At GBL's Q1 2025 conference, newly appointed CEO Johannes Huth, former partner at KKR (now advisory partner), outlined a strategic shift towards more private capital to boost shareholder value. In private, the CEO sees no more than 3 verticals. Healthcare will remain important, next to consumer and potentially a third in light industrial. He targets double-digit total shareholder return and the reduction of the NAV discount by focusing on the investment process. GBL's zero LTV and €5.6 billion ...

GBL 1Q FY25: NAV Dips 1.8%, Private Healthcare Assets Post Robust Resu...
The 1Q25 NAVps fell 1.8% to €111.2 vs. €113.8 at FY24-end, mainly dragged down by listed assets. Largest declines came from SGS (-€168m), Pernod Ricard (-€306m), and Adidas (-€127m). Private healthcare assets Affidea (+€116m) and Sanoptis (€32m) partially offset the NAVps decline. Mgmt. remains committed to achieving double-digit total shareholder returns over the medium term, targeting €5b in disposals (~50% completed) between FY24–27 for reinvestment and shareholder distribution. During 1Q, GB...

GBL/Transforming into a private equity powerhouse/BUY
Breaking news next to the FY24 results report, which for a holding company rarely is a real share price driver, was the announcement of a couple of important changes in governance: current CEO Ian Gallienne will step down and take up a non-executive role as Chairman, the current chairman Paul Demarais, Jr. will become vice-chairman, and KKR's most prolific European dealmaker Johannes Huth is to become the new Managing Director. Key question is whether the latter, who spearheaded some of KKR's mo...

US Tariffs Navigating the impact on Benelux equities
Trumps reciprocal tariffs caused a massive blow to equity markets, following a pressured period of escalating trade wars. Retaliatory measures can further heavily damage market confidence, as seen Friday when China announced their 34% tarrif of US goods. International trade policies have never moved this erratic and untransparant, with uncertainty and volatility being the baseline for now.
