AMS Osram released its Q4 and FY 2025 numbers yesterday. The Q4 performance was soft but outperformed our and the street's expectations, and was well above the mid-point of guidance, thanks to a robust aftermarket business. Positively, pro-forma net leverage (company methodology) dropped to 2.5x. While 2026 is expected to be a transition year, credit stats should improve substantially from 2027 onwards. We believe the bonds offer broadly fair value.
