Reiterate Overweight. PT to €113. H1 and guidance confirm faster
growth across Panels, roofing and ADVNSYS. Consensus has
caught up to our base estimates, but excludes BMC (~7% FY27
EPS upside) and re-rating optionality. Bull case €152, ~50%
upside.
Key Takeaways
Growth is broadening: H1 panel orders +13%; panel volumes +14% vs. 2019
despite market volumes -4–5%. We lift mid-term Building Envelope margin to
12%.
ADVNSYS momentum remains exceptional: H1 revenue +34% and orders/backlog
>2x YoY; BMC doubles addressable wallet from ~$0.5m to ~$1m/MW.
Consensus has caught up, but only to our base case: FY26/27 EPS is +1.3%/+0.8%
vs. consensus, while BMC adds ~7% to FY27 EPS and is not yet in our model.
The peer set is changing: Kingspan trades at 19x FY26E EV/EBIT vs. Industrial DC
exposed plays on >20x. We see scope for KSP's multiple to converge.
Next catalyst is the US roofing CMD: management targets ~$200m revenue in
