(CercleFinance.com) - The title gains close to 1% at the end of the session after the UBS target raise. After updating its forecasts for the Concessions division, the analysis bureau raised its target for the 12-month share price from 90 to 93.5 euros (+ 3.9%). The buying advice on the action of the French group of BTP and conceded services is still in place.

The experts have drawn the consequences of the presentations made by Vinci during the investor day last month. In particular, UBS updated its forecasts of parameters (growth, investment, maturity of assets and regulatory context) affecting cash generation, a key element in the valuation of Concessions. This led to a 23% increase in the estimated assets of the Airport Concession sub-division due to ANA in Portugal and Kansai in Japan.

In general, UBS welcomes Vinci's 'successful' investment strategy, including redeployment to airports. "Despite the significant competition from financial and industrial players, Vinci has proven that it is able to identify files where it is possible to generate value," says a note.

Scotframe acquired by French group Saint-Gobain
Terry Murden, Editor | November 14, 2017

Scotframe

Company continues with same management

Housing kit builder Scotframe Timber Engineering has been acquired by French construction group Saint-Gobain.

The deal will accelerate Saint Gobain’s involvement in the offsite manufacturing and closed panel construction market.

Scotframe, which is headquartered in Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, has more than 160 employees and reported sales last year of £30 million. It is known for providing modular housing and closed panel systems.

It provides full timber frame housing kits for small and medium sized builders, developers, and self-builders throughout the UK.

Bob Edwards, managing director of Scotframe said: “This is an exciting time for Scotframe and for all our dedicated colleagues. Having established the business 28 years ago the sale of Scotframe is a tremendous milestone in our evolution.

“I am delighted that we will be beginning this new chapter as part of the Saint-Gobain group, a tremendous company with a fantastic reputation and great strength.”




The Saint-Gobain Group, established in north east France in 1655, was the first enterprise to produce glass on an industrial scale and has since spread across the globe. It now has a strong presence in Scotland, and helped build the recently completed Queensferry Crossing, the longest three-tower cable-stayed bridge in the world.

Mr Edwards said: “I will continue to run Scotframe and for our customers nothing will change – we continue to operate business as usual. For our colleagues who make our business such a success this is a terrific opportunity to be part of a global group with 18,000 colleagues in the UK alone and a culture of valuing personal development and growth – so many new opportunities for our business.”

Mike Newnham, chief executive of Saint-Gobain Building and Distribution in UK and Ireland said: “I am delighted that the founder and MD of Scotframe, Bob Edwards, will continue as managing director following this acquisition, so Scotframe will continue business as usual, serving customers and manufacturing high-quality products.”

Saint-Gobain operates in 67 countries, and has more than 170,000 employees, including 18,000 in the UK and Ireland. The company recorded more than €39.1 billion in sales last year.

(Boursier.com) - In a study published on Monday, Bryan Garnier reaffirms his optimistic vision on the Saint-Gobain file, a title that the broker always advises to buy by aiming at 53 euros, ie a potential of appreciation of a dozen percent. The research bureau bases its positive opinion on the trends at work in the main markets of the group of building materials, rather encouraging: "compared to last year, the management is more confident about the market dynamics of the main countries which the group is exposed, "says Bryan Garnier following a meeting with the CFO. Regarding commodity inflation, even if the broker is aware of the short-term challenge for Saint-Gobai, he considers the tricolor well armed to cushion this shock from next year, thanks to its pricing power ".

-DOW JONES) - Saint-Gobain (SGO.FR) is likely to see its results rebound in France, analysts say Bryan, Garnier & Co. They raise their target price for the 6 %, at 53 euros, following the Orptimist declarations of the CEO of the building materials group, Pierre-André de Chalendar, in an interview given to the daily Les Echos. The manager noted that the volume of business activity in France remains 20% lower than the peak reached in 2007, despite the improvement in the economy, which leaves room for improvement. The recovery begun in France last year in the main building, thanks to new housing, has translated very clearly in the second work for a few months, underlines Pierre-André de Chalendar, who also notes a shudder in the renovation. The Saint-Gobain share declined by 0.6% to € 49.85.

- Barclays has made its recommendations
companies in the construction materials sector, after
have adopted a somewhat divergent view of the general perception
on the development of this sub-fund. For analysts Nabil Ahmed and
Pierre Rousseau, two main themes are emerging.
First, a US market that remains interesting, in particular
since the post-election euphoria of Donald Trump has settled down.
Second, emerging markets are still difficult due to
the stacking of capacities.

the
United States, the first half was disappointing in terms of
performance, but this phenomenon has several explanations,
the basis of high comparison, complicated climatic conditions and
partial freezing of federal investments. These elements, coupled with
weakness of the dollar and a political status quo, led to a

From now on, the basis of comparison is easier, the
orders have been packed in recent months and prices have
good. Hurricane Harvey could have a negative effect on the third
quarter, but in any case reconstructions will be
necessary in the coming months or even in the next few quarters.
The other major theme is fragmentation in emerging markets and
the multiplication of capacity, which has adverse effects on prices

European players.

In this context, Barclays notes its recommendation on HeidelbergCement

Synthesis

The company has solid fundamentals. More than 70% of companies have a mix of growth, profitability, debt and lower visibility.
The company presents an attractive fundamental situation for short-term investment.


Strong points

The stock is evolving near its long-term support in weekly data, located at EUR 44.37, thus offering a good timing of intervention.
Prices are close to daily data support at around 45.39 EUR, thus giving a good timing of intervention.
Analysts' forecasts of business development are relatively close. This is the result either of a good visibility linked to the activity of the group, or of a good communication of the company with the analysts.
The company is among the weakest in value. The ratio of "business value to turnover" is 0.75 for the year 2017.
Investors seeking performance will find this a major investment.
Over the past year, analysts covering the issue have revised upwards their expectations of earnings per share.
Analysts are positive about the stock. The average consensus recommends buying or overweighting the value.
The average price objective of analysts based on value is relatively remote and implies considerable potential for appreciation.
The stock follows a positive trend over the long term above the support level of EUR 44.37.


Weak points

With a relatively low expected growth, the Group is not one of the companies with the highest potential for revenue growth.
