First Berlin Equity Research hat ein Research Update zu The Platform Group AG (ISIN: DE000A2QEFA1) veröffentlicht. Analyst Alexander Rihane bestätigt seine BUY-Empfehlung und bestätigt sein Kursziel von EUR 16,00.

Zusammenfassung:
The Platform Group meldete starke Q3-Ergebnisse mit einem Umsatz und einem bereinigten EBITDA, die unsere Prognosen übertrafen. Der Umsatz stieg im Jahresvergleich um 44% auf €140 Mio. und lag damit 9% über unserer Schätzung (FBe: €128 Mio.). Dieser Umsatzsprung setzt sich aus einer 22%igen Erhöhung der Zahl der Bestellungen und einer 5%igen Erhöhung des Wertes des durchschnittlichen Warenkorbs zusammen. Das bereinigte EBITDA stieg um mehr als das Fünffache auf €7,0 Mio. und lag damit in den ersten neun Monaten bei €24,6 Mio. und somit leicht über unserer 9M-Prognose von €24,2 Mio. Damit ist TPG auf einem guten Weg, die für 2024 prognostizierten Umsatzerlöse in Höhe von €500 Mio. bis €520 Mio. (FBe: €511,3 Mio.) und das bereinigte EBITDA in Höhe von €29 Mio. bis €32 Mio. (FBe: €30,7 Mio.) zu erreichen. Der Nettogewinn stieg im Jahresvergleich um 357% auf €4,7 Mio. und lag damit im Rahmen unserer Schätzungen. Ein aktualisiertes DCF-Modell führt zu einem unveränderten Kursziel von €16. Wir bestätigen unsere Kaufempfehlung.


First Berlin Equity Research has published a research update on The Platform Group AG (ISIN: DE000A2QEFA1). Analyst Alexander Rihane reiterated his BUY rating and maintained his EUR 16.00 price target.

Abstract:
The Platform Group reported strong Q3 results, with revenue and adjusted EBITDA numbers exceeding our forecasts. Revenue rose 44% y/y to €140m and was 9% above our estimate (FBe: €128m) due to a 22% increase in the number of orders as well as a 5% increase in average order value. Adjusted EBITDA rose more than fivefold to €7.0m, bringing 9M adjusted EBITDA to €24.6m, slightly above our 9M forecast of €24.2m. This puts TPG well on track to meet 2024 guidance of €500m - €520m in revenue
(FBe: €511.3m) and €29m - €32m in adjusted EBITDA (FBe: €30.7m). Net income jumped 357% y/y to €4.7m and was in line with our estimates. An updated DCF model yields an unchanged €16 price target. We confirm our Buy recommendation.
