Ontex/Another challenging year ahead/HOLD
We reiterate our HOLD rating on Ontex and lower our target price from €5.40 to €4.70, following the group's weaker-than-expected FY25 results and a FY26 guidance we see as challenging, especially given the strong headwinds the company will have to cope with over 1H26. Ontex's material exposure to the Baby care segment remains the most challenged one in our view, given unsupportive demographics trends in key markets and material price and promotion pressure from branded players. At €4.7, Ontex wo...

Arcadis Risk/Reward Not Yet Compelling in a Derating Sector
Arcadis surprised the market last week with weak FY results and disappointing 2026 guidance. We have overhauled our model and revisited our investment case. The repositioning of GBA Places announced after the IBI & DPS acquisitions in 2022 is not (yet) delivering the intended benefits, while the strategic shift toward large, higher margin projects is coinciding with slower and less predictable backlog conversion. With organic growth absent, the previously compelling deep discount valuation versu...

Arcadis Key take-aways analyst call
This morning Arcadis reported numbers (as written in a separate FRN) that were disappointing. Only the Resilience GBA and the cash collection process delivered in 4Q25. The sharp revenue revision for 2026 came as a cold surprise but the new CFO delivered on his cash collection commitment made late 2025. Together with the CEO nominee he outlaid a hands-on, pragmatic approach for a return to meaningful topline and margin growth. However this will be (again) back-end loaded in 2026 and mainly reali...

Arcadis First look: Only Resilience & cash collection delivered in 4Q2...
Arcadis released a disappointing set. Only Resilience posted an inline performance. Growth in Places in 4Q was -13% while our scenario was counting on a stabilisation (o% y/y). 4Q Traction in Mobility did not materialise as expected. Company guides for a transitional 2026 with flat growth well below our and css est. . Thanks to strong cash collection FCF was a clear positive surprise. Analyst call at 2pm CET. We will adjust our 2026 numbers downwards to the issued guidance. Hold.
