The 3Q25 results were a slight miss versus expectations due to a more negative impact from mix in Parcels. PostNL has taken some efficiency measures to compensate and hence reiterated its outlook for FY25. However, we feel the outlook is challenging given that 4Q25F will need a significant uplift vs 4Q24. Election mail and yield/efficiency measures provide support but mix and uncertain customer confidence and close clustered timing of festive events lead us to remain a bit more cautious for 4Q25...
3Q25 revenue dropped by 10.9%, which was below our forecast of about -1%. Both Europe and US saw revenue decline by double digits, although the drop in the US was only mid single digits when excluding FX effects. 3Q25 adjusted EBITDA was not disclosed but was said to be down y/y, which is not surprising given the weak top line momentum. We have lowered our FY25 and FY26 adjusted EBITDA forecasts by respectively 10% and 8%. Despite the disappointing top line momentum, valuation continues to look ...

During the CMD mid-September, PNL announced a normalized EBIT target of at least € 175m by 2028. The improvement is expected to come from strong international growth and a significant margin uplift in domestic e-commerce. Key drivers include the expansion of the APL network and the shift from next-day to best-day delivery. While we see these initiatives as logical next steps, we expect uncertainty in the mail business and negative mix effects at parcels to persist. As most of the guided margin i...

1H adjusted EBITDA dropped by c. 20% which was below our expectations. Belysse. The decline is entirely due to Europe, as the US business held up very well and even increased adjusted EBITDA y/y, on stable volumes and higher unitary margins. After the weaker than expected 1H performance, we have lowered our FY25/26 adjusted EBITDA forecasts by c. 9%. Nevertheless, European volumes appear to be bottoming out and any volume rebound might have a significant positive effect on margins. Valuation con...
