With especially strong 2Q24 margins up 170bp YoY, we have adjusted our estimates. Expecting organic growth to accelerate from 2H24 onwards, we foresee double-digit growth of its EBITDA and EBITA from operations in FY24-26F. With Arcadis at an EV/EBIT 2024-26F discount of 18% to its peer group, we believe the valuation continues to be too low. Risks have certainly diminished on the back of well financed and better performing acquired companies but on margins Arcadis still can win and therefore we...
>H1 well short of expectations margin-wise - Stadler’s H1 2024 results, reported yesterday morning, fell nearly 35% short of expectations for EBIT (see our first take).

We initiate the coverage of Ypsomed with a target price of CHF 495 and an Outperform rating. As a leading developer and manufacturer of a broad portfolio of injection systems for the self-medication of liquid drugs, Ypsomed will benefit from major trends in the healthcare industry. The company is currently in a transformation process to exit non-core activities and to focus on the fast-growing and highly profitable Delivery Systems business. This is expected to lead on our estimates t...

>H1 results in line with previous indication - As indicated before in July 2024, NX Filtration reported its official half-year 2024 revenues which came at €5.9m, an increase of 57% year on year (yoy) and around 21% below our estimate of €7.1m, largely driven by conversion of pilots into full scale projects, repeat orders and new clients.

>Upping organic growth, EBITA and EBITA margin estimates - Both organic growth, EBITA and the EBITA margin were better than expected in Q2 2024 with the latter still not seeing any impact yet from the digitisation/automation program and only a headwind from the GEC program (strong FTE additions and thus opex but without the benefit of increased billability), which will start to have a material impact as of 2025. Due to the acceleration of the backlog growth (from 4.8%...
>Operating EBITA margin very strong, good organic growth, FCF disappoints - Q2 sales missed css by 1%, mainly driven by Places. Organic growth was better than expected at 6.0% vs css at 5.3%. The focus on EBITA margins shows with operating EBITA beating css by 7%. The operating EBITA margin in Q2 came in at 11.5% vs 10.8% css (AOe 10.7%) and Q2 2023 at 8.7%. So that selectiveness in Places (DPS) and Resilience has paid off more than we assumed and this is still withou...
