Sequana Medical Reports 5 centres with alfapump implants since launch

Sequana announces progress in the commercial uptake of the alfapump. We estimate at least 8 implants across 5 hospitals since launch in 2H25. The soft-launch target was 70 implants by end of 1Q26. However, we view this target as challenging to reach. We therefore await FY25 results for greater visibility on definitive sales figures and launch metrics. We reiterate our BUY and € 2.7 TP.

Lotus Bakeries/Entering an era of increased profitability/BUY

We reiterate our BUY rating on Lotus Bakeries and increase our target price from €11,100 to €12,700 following the group stronger-than-expected FY25 results. We, however, remove Lotus Bakeries from the ING Benelux Favourite list, following its strong share price performance since the turn of the year. We upgrade our Normalised EPS by 2-3% respectively over 2026-29F, reflecting a stronger-than-expected benefit of the discontinuation of the ice cream business, as demonstrated by the group's 2H25 Ad...

VGP FY25 results come a bit short, a new JV partner compensates

VGP reported FY25 net profit of EUR €290.4m vs. €373.6m expected, mainly due to non-EPRA financial costs in the JV. The recurrent earnings also came up short with €139m vs. our estimated €180m, mainly on €30m lower realized gains and €22m higher interest costs. Unrealized gains were strong at €183.0m vs. €185.2m expected. This indicates that the FV uplift is related to sound development activity. The NTA per share rose 9.1%. New leases signed amounted to €56.9m. FY25 completions at 494k sqm vs. ...

Montea Good things come to those who wait (for the big boxes)

Yesterday, Montea reported results that had an initial negative market reaction. After the call, the management and chairman Dirk De Pauw were available for a sit-down lunch to give more colour. The Q&A session centered on the pace of the development pipeline. Montea removed its project table as it believes it hurts their negotiating capacity. Now, it just reports an expected GLA of 236k sqm that will be completed over the next 2 years. The reason why it takes longer to develop the landbank is a...
