Tessenderlo Feedback Analyst & Asset Manager Day
Tessenderlo reiterated FY25 guidance at the occasion of its Investor event yesterday. We note that Luc Tack expressed his desire to become more strict in allocating capex, whilst in terms of activity portfolio there are no sacred cows and management asks themselves whether they are still the best owner of their businesses. The deal with Darling Ingredients on gelatin & collagen is progressing with deal closing probable in 2H26. We continue to appreciate Tessenderlo for its healthy FCF generation...

Brederode Currency headwinds weigh on the private equity portfolio
In 1H25, Brederode's NAV per share declined 4.4% to €135.2 (vs. €141.4 at FY24-end). The decline was driven by a €164.7m loss in the Private Equity portfolio, now valued at €2.7bn. The primary cause was the USD's depreciation of over 14% during the period. With ~66% of the Private Equity portfolio exposed to USD, currency risk remains a concern. The listed securities portfolio partially offset the loss with a €24.9m gain, led by strong performances in electricity and healthcare sectors. Cash flo...

Brederode 1Q25: NAVps down 1.7%; Weakening Dollar Impacts Private Asse...
Over 1Q25, NAVps decreased by 1.7% to €139.0ps (vs. €141.4ps at FY24-end). This was mainly due to the private asset portfolio, which recorded a loss of €74.7m on the ~€4.1bn portfolio. The primary reason was the recent decline of the USD. The listed assets generated a modest €6.6m gain, mostly driven by Iberdrola and Enel. During the first quarter, the position in Experian was strengthened, while the position in Nestlé was reduced. We currently estimate the NAVps at €140.0, implying a 13.2% disc...

Tessenderlo and Darling Ingredients announced the intention to combine their gelatin & collagen businesses in a joint venture, in which Tessenderlo would have a 15% stake. In light of the difficult market conditions, we welcome the combination which will lead to a gelatin & collagen powerhouse with a global market share of 35-40%. We still appreciate Tessenderlo for the sizeable free cash flow generation and maintain our Accumulate rating for now.
