Alfen A growth company that doesn't grow
In this note we adjust our estimates as Alfen's 1Q25 results have once again fallen short of expectations. The outlook for the smart grid solutions segment, which was anticipated to be robust, disappointed. Despite investment plans highlighting labour shortages, the impact has been more severe than anticipated. Additionally, gross profit margins dynamics in the smart grid segment are well below our expectations. In the EV charging segment, public demand was low, while increased competition in th...

Alfen/Less appealing than we thought/HOLD (previously Buy)
Alfen has lowered both its FY25 revenue and adjusted EBITDA margin guidance. We cut our FY25F EBITDA estimate by 39%. Our old forecasts aimed at the mid-point of the former revenue guidance and we now aim at the low end of the new revenue guidance. With regards to the adjusted EBITDA margin guidance we aim below the low end of the new guidance as the gross margin mix works against Alfen. We change our recommendation from Buy to HOLD. The two ingredients for our prior bullish view were: (1) Posit...

Geberit AG : Strong product innovation pipeline offers above-average g...
Geberit has outperformed the underlying European construction market every year bar three since it became a listed company in 1999. One of the main reasons for this is its strong innovation power. Given the (successful) launch of various blockbuster products in the recent past and in 2025, we have raised our 2025/2026 EPS estimates by +2%/+4%. Moreover, improving sentiment in its leading market, Germany, and the potential for lower interest rates has prompted us to adopt a bull case valuation ap...
