Lotus Bakeries Three Continents, One Momentum: Lotus Turns Up the Heat
We updated our model after Lotus Bakeries delivered in FY25 a 10% revenue increase to a very nice € 1,355m (KBCSe 1,355m, CSS 1,346m), driven by continued strong volume growth in 2H25 for both Lotus Biscoff (57% of branded revenues, +13% y/y) and Lotus Natural Foods (25% of branded, +17% y/y). Lotus Bakeries highlighted that the partnerships with Mondelez advanced strongly, contributing positively to the 2025 revenue. By the end of 2025, Biscoff production expanded to three continents. We welco...

AB InBev/Hold my Beer/HOLD (previously Buy)
AB InBev is due to report its full year results on 12 February. We have adjusted our forecasts for the fourth quarter to account for weaker than previously expected volumes in North America, Brazil and China. We have also increased our 12-month target price from €56.18 to €66.20 but change our recommendation from Buy to HOLD.

Dynamic Top Pick List Update February 2026: Removing ASMi; Adding UCB
After today's changes (ASMi out, UCB in), we maintain a balanced approach in our Dynamic Top Pick List, with a particular emphasis on value stocks that have been overlooked. Our defensive holdings are overweight, including real estate, which stands to benefit from lower interest rates. We remove ASMi from our Dynamic Top Pick List as the recent share price performance has driven the valuation meaningfully ahead of fundamentals. Since early December, FY27 diluted EPS expectations have risen by a...

ING Benelux Favourites/Aedifica, Ageas, ASM International, Basic-Fit, ...

Lotus Bakeries/Unconstrained organic growth ahead/BUY
We reiterate our BUY rating on Lotus Bakeries and increase our target price from €10,300 to €11,100. Lotus Bakeries remains on the ING Benelux Favourites List. We expect Lotus Bakeries' unique organic volume growth story to accelerate over 2026-28F, thanks to the company's new factory in Thailand as well as a continued double-digit growth for its Natural Foods division. We model organic growth CAGR of 11.7% over 2026-28F, c.100bp above Visible Alpha consensus. We believe such a growth rate, comb...
