We favour Benelux value stocks as even a mild recession typically hits growth stocks proportionally harder. We notice that some stocks have been hit hard by minor s...

• The FY23 results and 2024 outlook were more encouraging than anticipated which are more proof points of its successful transformation. • At its recent CMD, Bekaert raised its 2026 growth target for top line (>5%) and EBIT margin (from >9% to >10%) underlining its confidence.• Buy reiterated. We raise our TP from EUR 58 to EUR 63, based on a 4-5% increase EBIT estimates and lower net debt. This TP is based on our 2025E SOTP with a still undemanding overall target EV/EBIT of 8x.
We updated our earnings model after Bekaert delivered better than expected FY23 underlying EBIT margins, up c 80bps to 9.0%, and guided for at least stable underlying EBIT margins in 2024. We upped our uEBIT margin forecast for 2024 by about 50bps and now bank on a 9.2% uEBIT margin while incorporating further margin growth in the following years, as we expect further earnings support from further portfolio pruning and a gradually improving mix whereby more profitable segments such as Specialty ...

Due to the solid EBIT, slightly lower than expected capex, solid working capital management and lower cash taxes, FCF was ...
