ODDO BHF SECURITIES MORNING NEWS – DETAILED COMMENTS 10/23/2024

Last week, we organised an Expert Access event on multiple sclerosis (MS) with the participation of Dr Géraldine Androdias, a neurologist at Lyon University Hospital. Dr Androdias presented the key points of the ECTRIMS 2024 conference, as well as new trends in treating the illness. We note an unmet need in the primary progressive and secondary progressive forms, a real interest for the BTKi class with the greater penetration of the blood-brain barrier, and expectations for the anti-C...

EBITDA came in at € 2,668m and € 394m respectively; revenues were -3% below ccs estimates and adj. EBITDA -2%, with the main drag at C...

Akzo Nobel FIRST LOOK: Launch of portfolio review with initial focus D...

The launch of a portfolio review highlights the focus on the core Coatings businesses, whilst Akzo will take a more opportunistic approach with regards to its Decorative Paints business. Leverage is still reasonably high at 2.9x at the moment, although the company expects to end the year at c. 2.3x. We remind that Akzo lowered FY24 adjusted EBITDA guidance at the time of the 2Q results release towards the lower end of its initial € 1.5-1.65bn guidance range (FY23: €1.43bn). Taking into account t...

AkzoNobel/Cost savings yet to kick in/HOLD

We update our model to reflect the slight miss in 2Q24 results due to higher OPEX inflation and AkzoNobel guiding towards the low end of its 2024F Adj. EBITDA guidance. We stick to our HOLD rating and we reduce our target price to €61 per share from €64, as we believe that mid-term growth targets are well captured by consensus expectations.

Adj. EBITDA was furthermore pressured by wage inflation and inefficiencies which had a roughly € 30m higher negative impact on results than anticipated. Results at Deco where impacted by weak end-markets (China and Latam) and poor weather conditions (EMEA)....
