Thematic - 2026 Outlook - "5 More Years" (55pgs)
For access to the full note, please contact Naresh Chouhan ( ) With EU Pharma (ex-Novo) now having reached decade high valuations vs EuroStoxx600, we believe the sector has broken out & the sustainability of the growth profile will now generate continued strong performance. Consensus 5yr sales & EPS CAGR’s stand at 4% & 7% for 15x 2026 PE. We show there is upside to this from underestimated pipelines where cons. rarely fully models “monster” drugs & from M&A which we expect to be strong at JPM ...

We view this as highly encouraging in this refractory epilepsy population. Given the infantile onset of CDD, we will be curious to see as of which age, patients could be included in t...

ASM International/Technology outperformance/BUY
AI strength and ongoing technology transitions are key tailwinds for ASM International (ASM). We expect the company to significantly outgrow its peers. While we leave our longer-term revenue estimates largely unchanged, we increase our operational leverage assumptions. We reiterate our BUY rating and raise our target price to €700 per share (from €650). ASM remains on the ING Benelux Favourites list.
