bpost 1Q24 Conference call feedback
1Q24 sales decreased 5.3% to € 993m, or 3.2% below CSS expectations driven by soft results in N-A. Although the 1Q24 adj. EBIT of € 62.1m came in below expectations (kbcse: € 71.6m, css: € 69.7m), we want to highlight that the adj. EBIT was impacted by € 7.7m in M&A costs related to the Staci acquisition. Excluding this effect, profitability was in line with expectations driven by solid cost savings in E-logistics. Additionally, bpost mentioned that it does not expect any restructuring costs in ...

Bpost : Still in a challenging environment
>Top-line pressures and one-off costs - Bpost experienced pressure on both its Q1 24 revenues as well as its operating earnings. Group operating income (i.c. revenue) for the quarter came in at € 993m and adjusted EBIT at € 62m, respectively -3% and -11% vs. ccs, and -6% and -3% vs. our estimates. Bpost’s results continue to be driven by (a slowing) Belgium and E-Logistics Eurasia, while E-Logistics NA performed poorly once again due to challenging market conditions. ...

bpost - Waiting for impact of press negotiations
• The Q1-24 REBIT was somewhat below expectations, mainly on higher corporate costs. No concrete FY24 guidance as not all negotiations on press distribution are finalized yet and impact is still unclear.• The planned acquisition of Staci can strategically be justified, but in our view it looks stretched financially, both on multiple paid and on resulting leverage. • Although multiples appear undemanding, we stick to Hold. There are still many uncertainties.

>Underperform, price target to €19 (was €25.5) - We change our rating to Underperform (was Neutral) and lower our TP to €19 per share (relative valuation outcome €17.5, weight 40% and DCF, outcome €20, weight 60%). Our investment thesis remains unchanged with declining volumes and thus sales and margins for Recycling and Catalysis in the medium and long term and lower than projected revenues and margins (and thus returns) for Battery Materials. Due to the material c...

Umicore commented that market dynamics in 1Q were in line with its expectations and the company reiterated its FY24 adj EBITDA guidance range of € 900-950m which represents at midpoint a 5% drop y/y. We continue to believe Umicore is well placed to play an important role in the electrification of transportation as we believe that global OEMs are still determined to establish local supply chains in Europe and North America.
