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 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. The data show high rates of total HS resolution at 3 years, high rates of improvement from moderate or severe HS to mild disease, as well as strong draining tunnel resolution. This continues to highlight Bimzelx' benefit in this patient group, which we believe will further d...

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...

Ahold Delhaize: Conditional approval for the acquisition of Delfood / Bekaert: Acquires Bridgestone's €80m tyre cord business in China and Thailand / KPN: In-line Q4, 2026 guidance, cash returns / NSI: Results in line, further vacancy weighing on 2026 and cautious tone on new developments / UCB: Cimzia included in Medicare's price negotiations for 2028
We reiterate our BUY rating and raise our target price from €257 to €310. UCB finished the year strongly, after upgrading its guidance for a second time in FY25. This upgraded guidance was mainly driven by an exceptional performance for Bimzelx, the group's key growth engine and which continues to surprise to the upside. This gives us comfort into our peak sales of €8.5bn for Bimzelx by 2032F, especially as the performance of Bimzelx in Hidradenitis Suppurativa remains strong. Alongside Bimzelx,...
Deeper analysis on Bimzelx pricing means UCB is now our highest conviction long (Roche & AZN have had big moves). We show that: 1) Bimzelx ’26 pricing concerns are overdone, 2) 55% US volume growth in 2026 is likely, 3) Consensus is likely too low for H225 on US Bimzelx (pricing is likely +ive vs H125), 4) Guidance is likely in-line with cons. & 5) H225 has 2 upside drivers, with BE-BOLD boosting rheum volumes & one big payor likely unlocking HS access. Our proprietary product-by-product model s...
