Proximus has reported a good set of numbers and reiterated guidance (but could have lifted it, if it wasn’t being cautious in our view). Digi’s impact appears to be minimal this quarter, and its prominence in the market seems to be declining not rising.
AB InBev: Strong brew. Adecco: 1Q25 beats on timing of JV income; 2Q25 outlook momentum positive. Alfen: Preview - 1Q25 should arrive in line. AMG: Strong 1Q25 EBITDA beat, guidance raised. BAM Group: Non-residential backs EBITDA increase. CTP: Strong results combined with strong message on demand dynamics. JDE Peet's: Jumping Beans. Kinepolis: Peer AMC 1Q25 results - revenues per visitor more subdued. Prosus: CEO letter highlights strong profit growth in 2026. Proximus: CpaaS ...
The stock has performed strongly, up 30% YTD, reflecting the huge EV to equity bridge – we estimate the EV is up 8% YTD – benefiting from DIGI's poor start, Proximus' incoming CEO, chairman changes and the resilient nature of telecom (SXKP index up 12% YTD). We acknowledge a potential positive has emerged; a change in governance, with a new CEO and chairman possibly keener to exit the carrier/CPaaS business and cut staff aggressively, a highly political, contentious move given the highly unionis...
BE Semiconductor Industries: Important TCB Next order. Belgian telcos: Telenet weak Q1 commercially across the board, financials reasonable. D'Ieteren: Belgian April car registrations down 5%, VW down 11%. GBL: NAV per share above estimates. Kinepolis: US Peer Cinemark 1Q25 results a slight miss. KPN: VodafoneZiggo 1Q25 very weak, cut guidance on EBITDA, revenue after 2 months
