CICC reminds investors to pay attention to Ferretti's performance in September, when there will be many boat shows and a potential decision by the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates.

The Zhitong Finance App learned that CICC released a research report stating that maintaining Ferretti's (09638) “outperforming the industry” rating, revenue and EBITDA forecasts for 2024 and 2025 remain basically unchanged, with a target price of HK$36. The bank believes that changes in the Group's management are a normal phenomenon and should not have a significant impact on Ferretti's business. The bank reminds investors to pay attention to Ferretti's performance in September, when there will be many boat shows and a potential decision by the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates.

Incident: Ferretti Group released 1H24 results update: net revenue (excluding second-hand business) increased 7.7% year over year to 0.611 billion euros, and adjusted EBITDA increased 15.9% year over year to 96.7 million euros, corresponding to 15.8% profit margin (14.7% vs. 1H23 and 15.2% for the full year of 2023).

According to the report, the company's new orders for 1H24 reached 0.514 billion euros (down 10.4% year on year from 0.574 billion euro in 1H23), which was mainly dragged down by European business, especially the integrated yacht business, due to a high year-on-year base and weakening demand (customers usually buy integrated yachts for immediate use, and colder weather will adversely affect customer demand). New orders from the Middle East and Africa region grew 60.9% year-on-year in 1H24, thanks to improved local infrastructure and the Group's strong local advantage. The year-on-year growth rate of new orders in the 1H24 American region (up 28.1% year on year) was positive, thanks to a strong rebound in demand in 2Q24 (up 145.9% year over year). According to the company's disclosure, as of June 30, 2024, the Group had on-hand orders of 1.496 billion euros, an increase of 6.0% over the previous year, and net on-hand orders (total orders minus confirmed revenue) of 0.786 billion euros. Of these, 35% will enter revenue in 2024, and the remaining 65% will cover revenue after 2024.

The bank mentioned that on August 29, 2024, Jiang Kui was appointed as the new chairman of the board of directors of Ferretti Group after Tan Xuguang stepped down due to age, and the new composition of the group's internal board committee was also approved by the board of directors. On September 3, 2024, Ferretti Group announced that Stefano de Vivo has decided to step down as Group Chief Commercial Officer and Managing Director for personal reasons (focusing entirely on his family business since November 1, 2024) after joining the Group for more than 10 years.
