We downgrade Brunel from Buy to HOLD as the valuation argument is not strong enough to outweigh the short-term earnings risk we still see in key markets. We have lowered our estimates significantly post 2Q25 results reflecting the lack of a recovery while we see regulatory risks in NL, no signs of a German bazooka to provide support while Global Businesses faces some headwinds in certain regions due to project delays, slower momentum in Americas and Australasia while in general being impacted by...

Brunel will report its 2Q25F/1H25F results on Friday, 1 August before market opening. We expect a weak quarter mainly due to Germany and ongoing soft perm business. As such we lower our FY25-27F EPS estimates by 7%, 6% and 4% respectively. Since we expect no swift recovery in Germany, we believe some further cost savings measures are imminent to protect margins in Germany while keeping the growth potential intact. We keep our BUY rating and target price at €10.50 as we feel we likely modelled in...

We keep our valuation driven BUY rating but slightly lower our target price from €11.0 to €10.50 reflecting our lowered estimates. The miss on 1Q25 was driven mainly by a fall-out of the perm fees, which, although small in size, collapsed 50% and this hurt the EBIT significantly. The sudden fall-out resembles a Covid-19 situation as the uncertainty around tariffs is paralysing decision making. This uncertainty will likely linger around for a while and also affects the project business to some ex...
