Signify/Navigating rough waters/HOLD

Signify reported a broadly in-line 4Q23 update with slightly weaker organic growth but better margins. In our view, the update showed once again the challenging market in the lighting industry. High demand for energy efficient connected solutions cannot offset the cyclical weakness and weak dynamics of the non-connected segment. High FCF-yield remains an attraction of the case, but we do not believe it will trigger a re-rating. We slightly increase our target price to €28 (from €26) and reiterat...

ODDO BHF Small & MIDCAP MORNING NEWS - 01/26/2024

Although Argentina was only an anecdotal factor in Puma's profit warning, it has rekindled investors' questions about the impact of the peso's (official) depreciation following the election of Javier Milei last November. Here we recap on the risks faced by the twenty or so companies and sectors with a presence in Argentina within our universe of coverage. While the potential impact is marginal in most cases, it is more significant for: Prosegur, Prosegur Cash, Tenaris, Verallia, Save...

>4Q23 results in line with consensus expectations - Results in line with consensus, which is slightly disappointing to us as we hoped for a sequential improvement taking the easing comparable base into account. Despite the lack of sequential progress on the top line we note that the rest of the release is in line with expectations. Top line CSG was in line with consensus and came in at minus 7.7%. However the FX impact was more severe than expected coming in at minus...

Signify - Visibility on top line remains low

•    Q4-23 was roughly in line on adjusted EBITA.•    FY24 guidance is light on margins (up to 50 bps increase) and FCF generation, due to EUR 150m one-offs on restructuring and pensions.•    Valuation appears undemanding, but visibility remains low amidst macro-economic uncertainty. Hold maintained, with a TP of EUR 30.

2024 is set to be less impressive than 2023 (comparison bases, persistent inflation and tougher price hikes). We continue to play the green Capex theme and remain cautious on the construction segment. After the end-of-year rally, we see more limited re-rating potential. Based on our 2024 guidance scenarios, our Top Picks are Atlas Copco, Schneider Electric and Siemens (green Capex exposure, potential for earning upgrades over the course of the year). We have downgraded Rexel to Neutra...

Signify : We doubt 4Q23 will be as bad as the company guided for

>We increase our estimates and target price by 5% - We keep our revenue fc broadly flat while we increase our underlying EBITDA estimates by some 5%.
