TINC NV : Tomorrow’s Infrastructure, Today’s Yield

We initiate coverage on TINC with an Outperform recommendation and a target price of € 13.0/sh. With investments focused on securing long-term cashflows, we see TINC generating cash far in excess of distributions in future, enabling distribution growth at a CAGR of ~4% in our forecast period. We also forecast the portfolio fair value (FV) expanding strongly (CAGR +9.4% 2024-34), largely on the back of unrealised gains, as the company is expected to expand its sector agnostic investments in the S...

Dynamic Top Pick List Update February 2026: Removing ASMi; Adding UCB

After today's changes (ASMi out, UCB in), we maintain a balanced approach in our Dynamic Top Pick List, with a particular emphasis on value stocks that have been overlooked. Our defensive holdings are overweight, including real estate, which stands to benefit from lower interest rates. We remove ASMi from our Dynamic Top Pick List as the recent share price performance has driven the valuation meaningfully ahead of fundamentals. Since early December, FY27 diluted EPS expectations have risen by a...

UCB Presents supportive three-year Bimzelx data in HS at EHSF

UCB announced that three-year data from the BE HEARD trials for Bimzelx in moderate to severe HS will be presented at the Conference of the European Hidradenitis Suppurativa Foundation EHSF, being held 4–6 February in Malta.

UCB Model update ahead of FY25 results

Following the second guidance upgrade for FY25 (announced 5 December 2025), we update our UCB model ahead of FY25 results. UCB now expects revenue to exceed €7.6bn, representing +24% y/y (previously at least €7bn). The upgraded guidance reflects - next to the continued growth of Rystiggo, Zilbrysq, Fintepla and Evenity – strong performance of Bimzelx, including a strong momentum in hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and a favourable payer mix in the US. Our model update increases Bimzelx FY25 sales t...

UCB Kygevvi receives positive CHMP opinion in ultra-rare disease TK2d

Friday during trading hours, UCB announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion recommending the granting of marketing authorisation under exceptional circumstances for Kygevvi (doxecitine and doxribtimine) for the treatment of pediatric and adult patients with genetically confirmed thymidine kinase 2 deficiency (TK2d) with an age of symptom onset on or before 12 years. Following the positive CHMP opinion...

Arcadis/Slow start to FY26 but a better second half/HOLD

As 3Q25 showed only 1% organic growth, this did not translate into the anticipated pick-up in growth rates. We expect meagre organic growth to continue into FY26 as we foresee only 1.8%, with 1H26 likely being slower than 2H26. New management has been taking measures to reduce overhead costs. These cost savings are material, but will only come fully to fruit in FY27, also the year when we foresee a return to stronger organic growth. With consensus in our view still too optimistic on organic grow...
