EPS change11/09/2017 16:33

Strong cash flow invested in growth

Change in EPS2017 : € 1.37 vs 1.54-10.8%
2018 : € 1.53 vs 1.59-3.57%

We trim our 2017 EPS to allow for more spending on growth in businesses such as Fashion Technologies. The over-financing to prepare for acquisitions also has an immediate opportunity cost.



Change in Target Price€ 25.3 vs 25.2+0.41%

In spite of a strong delivery over H1, mostly on the Protective Film side, we leave our target price essentially unchanged as Chargeurs invests in faster growth at today's expense.



Change in DCF€ 28.7 vs 23.9+19.8%

The DCF metrics do not matter so much when valuing Chargeurs as we (still) look at it primarily as a holding company. But, longer term, more ambitious growth mechanically has a positive impact (excluding acquisitions).
