Unifiedpost is a niche SaaS player in the e-invoicing and procurement channel space. Regulatory headwinds mean this market is ripe for growth, which should benefit Unifiedpost. Due to some unsuccessful past M&A, the company is in a challenging financial position today. However, it has recently embarked on a divestment path, aiming to streamline the business and improve its fundamentals. We like the new direction, however prefer to take a wait-and-see approach. - ...

>Solid Q1 2024 results but order intake below expectation due to subdued demand in some markets - This morning, Jenoptik reported its Q1 2024 results above expectations. Revenues were € 256.1m above consensus at € 245.4m. EBITDA was € 44.5m, giving a margin of 17.4% above the consensus at € 40.6m and 16.5% driven by the improvement in earnings at non-photonic business and the good performance of ‘Advanced Photonic division’. EBIT came in at € 26m, i.e. a margin of 10....

>Global sales for March 2024 at +15.2% y-o-y (vs +16.4% in February), Q1 2024 at +15% - Worldwide semiconductor sales in March 2024 were published by the WSTS (World Semiconductor Trade Statistics), with the usual one-month lag. In terms of the three-month moving average, sales came to $ 50.8bn, falling short of our estimate of $ 52.2bn, pointing to y-o-y growth +15.2% (a slight sequential decline of -0.6%). This marks a slowdown vs February, which stood at +16.4%. Q1...
>Ventes mondiales de mars 2024 à +15.2% yoy (vs +16.4% en février), un T1 24 à +15% - Les ventes mondiales de semiconducteurs de mars 2024 ont été publiées par la WSTS (World Semiconductor Trade Statistics), avec comme toujours, un mois de décalage. En données lissées (moyenne 3 mois), elles ressortent à 50.8 Md$, inférieures à notre prévision à 52.2 Md$, en croissance annuelle de 15.2% (légère baisse en séquentiel de -0.6%). Il s’agit d’un ralentissement par rapport ...
Several themes are set to drive the 2024 proxy season, among them the change of voting policy of ISS and a tipping point for climate resolutions. It will also be the last one before the first CSRD reports. Its long-term impact on Boards could also be underestimated. A wave of appointments of specialized sustainability profiles would upset their balance. We identify the AGMs likely to be play the most decisive role for the companies in the medium term: Alstom, Teleperformance, Worldlin...
Plusieurs éléments animeront les assemblées générales 2024 : changement de politique de vote d’ISS, résolutions climat à un tournant… alors que cette saison est la dernière avant les premiers rapports CSRD. Celle-ci pourrait d’ailleurs avoir un impact long terme sous-estimé sur les conseils. Une vague de nominations de profils spécialisés en durabilité bouleverserait leurs équilibres. Nous identifions les AG les plus déterminantes pour la gouvernance des sociétés à moyen terme : Alsto...
>Global sales for February 2024 up +16.4% y-o-y vs +15.5% in January - Worldwide semiconductor sales in February 2024 were published by the WSTS (World Semiconductor Trade Statistics), with the usual one-month lag. On a three-month moving average, sales came to $ 43.6bn, slightly ahead of our forecast of $ 43.2bn. This represents a sequential decline of 3% (usual seasonal effect in February), but a fresh improvement in full-year growth to +16.4%, after +15.5% in Janu...

En données lissées (moyenne 3 mois), elles ressortent à 43.6 Md$, légèrement au-dessus de notre prévision de 43.2 Md$.

With the exception of the US, construction markets should continue to shrink in 2024 (-2% in Europe) before rebounding on the back of lower interest rates. Against this backdrop, groups will be differentiated mainly on the basis of their resilience (geographical and price/cost mix), capital allocation (and special situations) and valuation. In this context, we are upgrading our recommendations on KONE (modernisation as an alternative source of growth to China) and Holcim (a substantia...
Hormis les Etats-Unis, les marchés de la construction devraient continuer à reculer en 2024 (-2% en Europe) avant de rebondir à la faveur d’une baisse des taux. Dans ce contexte, la différenciation entre les groupes se fera essentiellement sur leur capacité de résistance (mix géographique et prix/ coûts), l’allocation du capital (et situations spéciales) et leur valorisation. Face à cet environnement, nous relevons nos recommandations sur KONE (la modernisation comme relais de la Chin...
>Neutral rating maintained; target price downgraded to € 32 from € 33 - Following the release of the 2023 annual results, we are lowering our target price to € 32 from € 33. 2024 will be a year of transition for Jenoptik due to a sharper-than-expected market slowdown. H1 is set to be the low point before an improvement in H2 and beyond, driven mainly by the semiconductor equipment market. Despite this weakness, the group has reiterated its 2025 targets and remains con...
>Opinion Neutre maintenue, OC abaissé à 32 € vs 33 € - Suite à la publication des résultats annuels 2023, nous abaissons notre OC à 32 € vs 33 €. 2024 sera une année de transition pour Jenoptik en raison d’un ralentissement du marché plus fort que prévu. Le S1 devrait être probablement le point bas avant une amélioration au S2 et au-delà tirée principalement par le marché des équipementiers semiconducteurs. Malgré cette faiblesse, le groupe a réitéré ses objectifs 202...
