    Klinkt niet echt als een koopje.

    Timing lijkt me ook wat twijfelachtig, zie bijlage.
    100% mee eens! Nu kun je roepen lt maakt het niet zoveel uit. Maar je eerste rendement zit besloten in een goede aankoopprijs. Dat lijkt vooralsnog weggegeven.
    Erg veel premie betaald op deze overname.
    We gaan het meemaken, maar ben (nog) niet enthousiast.
    Laat me graag van het tegendeel overtuigen.

    Op het eerste gezicht denk ik er ook zo over. Anderzijds zijn de synergiën aanzienlijk. Ik zou me eerst beter in de nieuwe aankoop moeten verdiepen. Mogelijk hebben ze een transformatie doorgemaakt. Ik lees in de slides dat 80% van hun omzet in de luchtvaart industrie wordt behaald. Waarschijnlijk is dit een step up naar finished products with high margins.

    Beursblik: aantrekkelijke overname voor Aperam
    Beeld: ABM Financial News
    (ABM FN) De overname van Universal Stainless & Alloy Products is voor Aperam een strategisch interessante stap, die het profiel van het bedrijf versterkt, door de grotere blootstelling aan legeringen, luchtvaart en Noord-Amerika. Dat stelden analisten van Degroof Petercam donderdag in een rapport.

    Dit betekent een bredere geografische spreiding, meer producten en meer sectoren, met name de luchtvaartindustrie. Het EBITDA-resultaat stijgt hierdoor met zo'n 12 procent, zo verwacht analist Frank Claassen van Degroof Petercam.

    De prijs die Aperam betaalt, lijkt redelijk, gezien de ruimte die het bedrijf ziet voor synergievoordelen. De fabrikant repte vanochtend van 30 miljoen dollar per jaar.

    Als die worden behaald, betaalt Aperam ongeveer 5,5 keer het EBITDA-resultaat. Dat is niet erg veel in deze sector, meent de analist.

    Hoewel de schuldratio tijdelijk lijkt te verdubbelen, blijft deze binnen de perken en Claassen noemde het positief dat Aperam zijn aantrekkelijke dividendbeleid voortzet.

    Degroof Petercam handhaafde het Houden advies met een koersdoel van 30,00 euro, omdat de markt voor Aperam uitdagend blijft, vooral in Europa.

    Het aandeel Aperam noteerde donderdag 0,2 procent hoger op 25,40 euro.

    Kijk, als dat straks zo blijk te zijn, helemaal prima.
    Vooralsnog heb ik mijn reserves.

    Dat is mij ook wel duidelijk, maar als je naar de grafiek van de overnameprooi kijkt, had deze overname een stuk beter getimed kunnen worden.

    Ik ben in ieder geval blij dat het dividend gehandhaafd wordt.

    Als de markt eenmaal aantrekt loopt Aperam de aangegane schuld inderdaad waarschijnlijk spoedig weer in.
    Het management is ook niet gek en altijd goed in control, dus het feit dat op dit koersniveau geboden is met daarbij handhaving van het dividend geeft toch wel een boost aan het vertrouwen in de performance voor de komende jaren. Deze overname geeft Aperam meer mogelijkheden zich met gespecialiseerd staal te onderscheiden ten opzichte van de concurrentie.

    Ik heb mijn positie in Aperam ook vergroot. Ondanks de slechte marktomstandigheden weet Aperam toch behoorlijke resultaten te boeken. Recycling tak compenseert voor andere onderdelen, daar zit groei, en de andere onderdelen trekken wel bij als macro omstandigheden beteren. Kan omhoog en omlaag, maar de potentie voor omhoog acht ik groter dan andersom.

    UPDATE 1-Steelmaker Acerinox expects weak demand to persist into fourth quarter
    (Adds share price, details on revenue and production, CEO comment, analyst comment)

    By Javi West Larrañaga and Jesus Calero

    Oct 29 (Reuters) - Spanish steelmaker Acerinox posted a sharp drop in third-quarter net profit on Tuesday as a result of a weak stainless steel market in Europe and North America that it said will likely continue through the fourth quarter.

    Its shares fell 4.1% by 0844 GMT, making them among the biggest losers in Spain's blue-chip IBEX 35 index.

    Net profit plummeted 32% to 48 million euros ($52 million) on revenue down 16% to 1.31 billion euros. Profit fell despite a 21% rise in output as operations resumed at its steel mill in Cadiz in southern Spain after a five-month strike.

    The company said its core profit decreased by more than 21% year-on-year in the quarter as demand in its main markets remained weak and global uncertainties continue to trouble the sector.

    It expects core profit, excluding the effects of the sale of its Malaysian unit Bahru Stainless, to be even lower in the fourth quarter.

    "The weakness in the demand for stainless steel continues in the fourth quarter," it said in a statement. "The seasonality of the end of the year and the geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties do not allow us to be optimistic in the short term, although the level of inventories is still low".

    Acerinox's weakness comes as Europe's main steel industry group Eurofer points to global steel overcapacity, unfair trade, low demand in manufacturing industry and high energy prices as the biggest problems the industry faces.

    Despite tough market conditions for stainless steel, CEO Bernardo Velazquez said in a statement its U.S. branch and the high-performance alloys division had robust performances.

    J.P. Morgan analysts said they see Acerinox's outlook as challenging, highlighting a third-quarter miss to their core earnings (EBITDA) forecast, increased net debt and weak demand, which they said are likely to lead to substantial downgrades in 2024 and 2025 earnings forecasts.

    European steel demand to fall in 2024, Eurofer says
    LONDON, Oct 29 (Reuters) - European steel demand will shrink this year, industry group the European Steel Association (Eurofer) said on Tuesday, downgrading its outlook for a fourth time this year due to weak demand and a sluggish economy.

    In July, the Eurofer cut its 2024 outlook for steel demand growth in the EU to 1.4%, but on Tuesday it said consumption would fall by 1.8%. It previously lowered its expectation in February and April.

    "The severe consequences of the war in Ukraine and other global geopolitical tensions, along with the deteriorating manufacturing outlook across the EU and uncertainty in the overall economic environment, have continued to take their toll," a Eurofer report said.

    It still expects growth in apparent steel consumption next year, but cut its forecast to a gain of 3.8% from 4.2%.

    Apparent steel consumption measures output of steel producers plus net imports minus net exports.

    The group of steel producers said it downgraded its forecasts after data showed that apparent steel consumption in the second quarter fell 1.3% to 34.8 million metric tons after a slide of 3% in the first quarter.

    "Such data further confirm the urgent need for action at (the) EU level to preserve sustainable steel production and quality jobs in Europe while supporting decarbonisation investments," said Axel Eggert, general director of Eurofer.

    He called on the EU to address global overcapacity, unfair trade practices, high energy prices and access to ferrous scrap.

    "Even with a modest recovery projected in 2025, consumption volumes are likely to remain well below pre-pandemic levels," Eurofer said.

    In the second quarter, steel imports to the EU fell by 1.5%, but their overall share climbed to an historic high of 28%, it added.

    Spanish steelmaker Acerinox on Tuesday posted a sharp drop in third-quarter net profit as a result of a weak stainless steel market in Europe and North America that it said will likely continue through the fourth quarter.

    Outokumpu verhoogde aangepaste ebitda meer dan verwacht - maar verwacht sequentiële daling in Q4
    30 oktober 2024 om 08:10 uur

    De Finse fabrikant van roestvrij staal Outokumpu rapporteerde een lager dan verwachte omzet in het derde kwartaal. De aangepaste bedrijfswinst vóór afschrijvingen, ebitda, was beter dan verwacht. Het bedrijf overtrof ook de verwachtingen voor andere winstlijnen verderop in het rapport.

    De omzet daalde met 0,8 procent naar EUR 1.518 miljoen (1.531), vergeleken met de analistenconsensus van Vara Research van 1.578,2.
    De leveringen van roestvrij staal daalden met 2 procent ten opzichte van het vorige kwartaal.

    "De import naar zowel Europa als Noord-Amerika is blijven toenemen, waardoor de prijzen van roestvrij staal onder druk zijn komen te staan. We hebben echter onze sterke marktposities behouden, met een eerste plaats in Europa en een tweede plaats in Noord-Amerika," zei CEO Kat ter Host.

    De aangepaste ebitda was EUR 86 miljoen (51), de verwachting was 72,9, met een aangepaste ebitda marge van 5,7 procent (3,3).
    Het bedrijfsresultaat was EUR 32 miljoen (-45), het verwachte bedrijfsresultaat was 16,9. De operationele marge was 2,1 procent.
    De aangepaste bedrijfswinst was EUR 31 miljoen (-12), de verwachte bedrijfswinst was 16,9, met een aangepaste brutowinstmarge van 2,0 procent.
    De winst voor belastingen was EUR 22 miljoen (-60), verwacht op 6,0.
    De winst na belastingen uit voortgezette bedrijfsactiviteiten bedroeg EUR 20 miljoen (-55), verwacht op 4,5.
    De winst per aandeel was EUR 0,05 (-0,13).

    Het bedrijf verwacht dat de aangepaste ebitda in het vierde kwartaal lager zal zijn dan in het derde kwartaal.

    UPDATE 3-Outokumpu warns of worsening steel markets after Q3 profit beat
    08:40 30/10/2024

    By Jagoda Darlak

    Oct 30 (Reuters) - Finnish stainless steel maker Outokumpu beat market expectations for its third-quarter core profit (EBITDA) on Wednesday, helped by improved result in its ferrochrome business and higher stainless steel prices in Europe.

    It warned however that deteriorating markets in Europe and North America would hurt its stainless steel business in the final quarter of the year, echoing comments from rivals SSAB and Acerinox .

    It expects stainless steel deliveries to be flat or decline by up to 10% in the fourth quarter, along with sequentially lower core earnings.


    "We are facing challenging market conditions both in Europe and the Americas," Outokumpu's new CEO Kati ter Horst said in the statement.

    European steelmakers have been struggling with weak demand, cost inflation and cheaper imports from Asian rivals, which last year dragged down profits from the record levels seen in 2021 and 2022.

    "We do see a lot of circumventing activities of material from China through other countries into either the North American market or the European market," finance chief Marc-Simon Schaar told Reuters.

    He added imports were increasing in both Europe and the Americas, with imports in North America at the highest levels the group had observed there in the last four years.

    Outokumpu's adjusted EBITDA was 86 million euros ($93 million) in the third quarter, above analysts' average forecast of 72.9 million in a company-provided poll.

    Core profit in its Europe and Ferrochrome business areas came 55% and 36% above analysts' forecasts, respectively, and ter Horst said demand for its low-emission ferrochrome, an alloy used to produce stainless steel, had remained resilient .

    But in the Americas region, where Outokumpu generated nearly a third of its sales last year, adjusted EBITDA plunged 90% to 5 million euros, missing market expectations of 20 million. ($1 = 0.9243 euros)
