Van de Velde is a 423 mn EUR market cap firm that “designs, develops, manufactures, and markets trendy luxurious lingerie and swimwear for ladies worldwide”.
Though the merchandise clearly look thrilling, the inventory seems a lot much less thrilling:
Regardless of the dividend, Van de Velde has not so much to indicate. Little progress and earnings are decrease than 6-7 years in the past. However, the inventory could be very low-cost and margins are nonetheless fairly excessive. With a 7% dividend yield, one would possibly receives a commission for ready. 57% are owned by a HoldCo. “Watch”.

My understanding s that the enterprise is generally about distribution, a lot much less about R&D.

Thus far, it was not an incredible deal for IPO buyers who paid 26 EUR a share.
Though I like distribution companies, Azelis doesn’t look very enticing from a ROE/Margin perspective. They appear to have accomplished a few acquisitions across the phrase and levered up previously 2 years. GAAP earnings don’t look so good, however free money movement seems very robust.
EQT nonetheless owns 47% and most probably would wish to promote sooner moderately than later. The exchanged the CEO in August 2023. I nonetheless would love to check out them though I’m not an enormous fan of PE IPOs. “Watch”.

The portfolio of the corporate consists of ⅔ listed belongings, the remainder are Non-public investments:
The most effective days of the corporate appear to be behind it, the share value hasn’t accomplished a lot over the previous 20 years or so:
Even on the internet website tehy admit that they’ve been trailing the Eurostoxx 50 for the final 10 years (a minimum of they’re clear):
Valuation is round 0,64x NAV, however I gues the Non-public investments are perhaps optimistically worth, comparable to Canyon, a German bicycle firm they purchased in 2020. Enjoyable truth: Pargesa was really a part of the V&O portfolio in 2011.
