Loihde
Overview
Financial overview
Equity research
Loihde’s Q3 beat our estimates, offset by expectations of a slower Q4. Growth in the main business areas continues to be favourable, while recovery in IT consulting is still awaited, and we see continued margin improvement potential.
Loihde reported better than anticipated Q3 results, with sales growing 5% y/y to EUR 31.5m (Evli: 30.6m) and adj. EBITDA amounting to EUR 2.9m (Evli: 2.3m). Growth expectations for the remainder of the year are rather cautious given the market situation and front-loaded revenue from security solutions.
Loihde reports its Q3 business report on October 30th. We expect healthy profitability levels and slight growth in the near-term and Loihde in our view remains well positioned to tackle near-term market uncertainties. Following a share price decline since our previous update we upgrade our rating to BUY (HOLD), TP of EUR 12.2 and estimates intact.
Loihde’s Q2 was better than estimated, profitability in particular, with adj. EBITDA up EUR 1.6m y/y to EUR 2.6m (Evli EUR 1.9m). We continue to expect favourable growth and profitability development going forward.
Loihde’s Q2 was better than anticipated. Net sales grew a modest 3% to EUR 35.4m (Evli EUR 34.9m), and with operative costs slightly down from previous year levels the adj. EBITDA as a result improved to EUR 2.6m (Evli EUR 1.9m, Q2/23: EUR 1.0m).
Loihde reports its H1 results on August 27th. We expect slight net sales growth and a clear y/y profitability improvement. Of key interest in our view is the growth pace and potential remarks on recent or anticipated changes in the demand situation.
