CMB.Tech Landmark LT charter agreement with MOL & controlling half of ...
Last Friday Golden Ocean announced that CMB.Tech now controls two out of four of its board seats. This follows the strategic acquisition in early March of the 40.8% stake previously held by John Frederiksen. This morning during trading hours, CMB.Tech further bolstered its position by announcing a significant long-term time charter agreement with the Japanese shipping conglomerate MOL, involving nine ammonia-ready/fitted vessels. This agreement adds approximately $675 million (pro rata) to its $...

CMB.TECH (Sell, TP: USD7.60) - Dry bulk expansion at a premium
We expect more news to be announced on its Golden Ocean ambitions in the weeks ahead, but the recent SEC filing could indicate a potential future share-based tie-up. In such a scenario, CMB.TECH would vastly expand its dry bulk exposure, with potentially cash-generating assets on the water. However, this is at odds with our more muted dry bulk sector outlook and what we believe was a premium valuation. We reinstate our recommendation with a SELL and USD7.6 target price.

‘The times they are a-changin’
The recurring theme at our 18th Energy & Shipping Conference was geopolitical uncertainty and a potential trade war, warranting a wait-and-see approach, particularly on the Trump 2.0 effect. The consensus view pointed to high asset values, with no rush to the yards, aligning with below-NAV valuations across most of our coverage. However, panellists generally saw less downside risk than the 25% average discount to steel for our Tanker, Dry Bulk and Gas coverage. Overall, the day highlighted uncer...

Dynamic Top Pick List Update March 2025: Removing ABN, Ackermans – Add...
We made 5 changes in this March update of our KBC Securities Dynamic Top Pick List (DTPL): On 26 February we already removed ABN Amro from our DTPL, after a strong 24.4% return since the announcement of our 2025 Dynamic Top Pick List on 13 December 2024, far outpacing our financial sector coverage. Although we remain positive on the longer term, we believe most of the short-term revaluation is behind us. Today, we remove Ackermans & van Haaren as the stock just hit an all-time high and crossed...

CMB.TECH (No_rec, TP: USD) - Recommendation and target price withdrawn
The company has agreed to acquire Hemen’s Golden Ocean stake (40.8%) at a price around the peak share price in May 2024, and above the market (46%) and our NAV (15%). On the face of it, we see NAV dilution for CMB.TECH, while initially the only change for Golden Ocean shareholders is a shift in main shareholder from John Fredriksen to the Saverys family. Given DNB Markets’ role in the transaction, we have withdrawn our recommendation and target price.

Fugro Key take-aways FY24 analyst call
This morning Fugro published good 4Q numbers. Adjusted EBIT landed at €315m well above our (€296m) and CSS (€297m) estimates. Resulting margin is at 13.8% (vs. 13% E). Full year revenues were mainly derived from Oil&Gas (37%, +1% y/y) and Renewables (38%, +10% y/y). Margin strength is remarkable especially in the US where FY EBIT margins were flat at 10% even when revenues fell 10%. Company guides for EBIT in the 11-15% mid term range with full year revenue growth being back-end loaded given spe...
