Agfa Model update after strong 4Q25 recovery, but structural headwinds...

We updated our model (€ 1.0 Target Price maintained) after Agfa delivered a clearly improved 4Q25, with adj. EBITDA up 28% y/y to € 39m and FCF of € 44m, bringing FY25 FCF to a positive € 35m. This late-year rebound partly masks a challenging FY25, which remained dominated by structural pressure in Radiology, the dilutive impact of the ongoing cloud transition in HealthCare IT, and rising uncertainty linked to silver price volatility. Agfa remains confident in the strategic direction of its “Gro...

The tariff war between US and China has eased, but with the Iran conflict and an erratic Trump, uncertainty will continue into 2027. Energy prices have gone ballistic, with gas prices doubling in Europe and has hit the cyclical stocks hard. The highly anticipated AI productivity gains also will have to transpire sooner or later or a US market correction becomes unavoidable. While the macro-economic impact has been limited so far, a prolonged uncertain situation will result in economic damage. We...

Azelis Group NV : Review of capacity additions and potential tailwinds...

After a difficult year 2025, a significant rebound in chemical performance in 2026 is not very likely as weak end-market demand continues, while significant capacity additions in key feedstock like ethylene will limit the increase in utilization rates. However, some positive news, especially for European chemical producers, have come up including changes in the asphyxiating regulatory and environmental framework. Other measures, including potential anti-dumping duties and government support are ...

Azelis Model update

After revising our estimates post FY25 results we lower our estimates. For 2026 we lower our revenue estimates as we expect lower organic growth, lower acquisitional growth and more FX headwinds. The impact on the gross profit margin is modest while we anticipate more pressure on the EBITA margins. However, we see significant upside as the current valuation is based on compressed estimates and multiples. Our DCF valuation and multiple approach result in a fair value of € 15 per share. Therefore,...
