Goodbody Morning Wrap Paper & Packaging Leipa capacity addition may be delayed further This morning UPM has confirmed the sale of the Schwedt newsprint mill to Leipa for €70m. David O’Brien +353-1-641 9230 The mill will be converted to containerboard and is expected to have a total production david.a.o’[email protected] capacity of 450k tonnes. Robert Eason +353-1-641 9271 This deal was originally expected to close in Q116 so the project is already running behind. [email protected] In our capacity model we had assumed that over 200k tonnes of would be produced in 2017. However, given the original delay and this morning’s announcement that UPM and Leipa have entered into a contract manufacturing agreement for newsprint for a transition period which could last until the end of 2017, we could have to delay this impact until 2018. The Leipa delay and the delay in Pro-Gest’s Manitova mill means that capacity growth for 2017 in Europe will be running closer to 2.5% than the original >5% expectation. While recognising this is just a delay not a cancellation it is welcome news nonetheless. Indeed, there still remains question marks around the timing of other mills scheduled for 2018. Home… Origin Enterprises Q1 updates from Bayer and Du Pont Both Bayer and Du Pont pointed to a difficult market backdrop in the global crop protection Recommendation: Buy market globally in their Q1 updates today. Bayer saw an increase in its seed sales (+5.4%). Closing Price: €6.81 However, within Crop protection product while sales of fungicides increased (+2.9%), this Liam Igoe was offset by declines in Insecticides (-12.2%) and Herbicides (-3.8%). Overall sales of crop +353-1-641 9450 protection products, therefore, are likely to have been lower. Meanwhile, Du Pont simply [email protected] noted volume declines globally within crop protection products. Origin will release its Q3 IMS on May 26th. We are anticipating weaker sales of agri- inputs across the board to reflect the impact in the UK of weaker farm incomes on purchases of fertilisers and crop protection products.

The forecourt retailer has secured £14m from BGF and HSBC to acquire additional Closing Price: €4.65 forecourts and refresh parts of its existing estate, with a particularly focus on improving its Patrick Higgins in-store offer (convenience and food). The company, which ranks tenth in the ‘Top 50 +353-1-641 0403 Indies’, currently operates 25 sites across the UK and plans to add a further 20 sites over the [email protected] next two years. This announcement follows private equity investment in three of the top five Independent forecourt retailers. The increased capital flows into this market illustrates the strong growth potential for specialist operators in the region as the two primary operators, Oil Majors and Supermarkets, retrench and refocus on their core businesses. Home… Builders Merchants Growth slows for Carpetright but upgrade gross margin guidance Carpetright has reported that UK lfl sales increased by 0.7% in the 12 weeks to April 23rd Robert Eason +353-1-641 9271 (Q4). This represents a slowdown from the 2.4% in the prior period (Q3) and 3.7% in H1. [email protected] However, there were difficult comparatives with UK lfls up over 10% in the same 12 week period last year. Growth has also slowed in its European operations (Ireland, Belgium and David O’Brien +353-1-641 9230 Netherlands) with lfl of 1.9% in Q4 versus 4.2% in Q3. Despite the slower top-line growth david.a.o’[email protected] management has revised its guidance for a decline in gross margins from 100-150bps to 80- Sarah Reilly 100bps. +353-1-641 6080 [email protected] The Carpetright statement is somewhat in contrast to last week’s update from Jason Molins Travis Perkins which reported a pick-up in lfl trends in the first quarter of the +353-1-641 9141 [email protected] calendar year. However, it is of note given the uncertainty that surrounds Brexit and we will be watching the data points closely in the coming weeks. Home… Page 3 26 Apr. 16 Goodbody Morning Wrap Breedon Aggregates Proposal put forward to the CMA to satisfy competition concerns The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has announced that as part of the on-going Recommendation: Buy investigation of the Breedon Aggregates acquisition of Hope Construction Materials, Breedon Closing Price: £0.75 Aggregates has proposed selling 14 ready-mixed concrete sites to satisfy competition Jason Molins concerns. This follows the announcement earlier this month that the CMA had highlighted 27 +353-1-641 9141 ready-mixed concrete sites that were giving rise to competition concerns. The CMA has until [email protected] June 23rd to accept the undertaking, with the ability to extend to August 25th if it considers there are sufficient reasons for doing so. This news is largely as expected and we note that the CMA has indicated that “there are reasonable grounds for believing that the undertakings offered by Breedon, or a modified version of them, might be accepted by the CMA”. Our expectations remains that the deal should be completed by July. Home… UK Economic View Sterling benefits as “Remain” campaign gains momentum Sterling has being staging somewhat of a resurgence over the past two weeks. On a trade Juliet Tennent +353-1-641 9469 weighted basis it has risen by 3% over that timeframe and is at its highest level in 6 weeks. [email protected] The change in sentiment is a response to the polls and betting odds indicating that there has been a swing in momentum towards the “Remain” camp in recent days. The most recent poll of polls (whatukthings.org) shows that support to remain in the EU has risen to 47% from 40% a week earlier. Meanwhile, the betting odds imply that the probability of a Brexit has reduced from c.33% to c.27% (betfair exchange). This change is likely to have been driven by a number of factors including; 1) The treasury quantifying the cost to each household of the cost of leaving the European Union, and 2) The intervention of US President Obama supporting the “Remain” campaign last week. Despite attracting criticism for meddling in the domestic affairs of the UK, President Obama’s warning on trade appear to have had some impact and sterling has responded accordingly. However, with almost 2 months to the referendum there are likely to be further twists resulting in volatility for sterling. Home… Page 4 26 Apr. 16 Goodbody Morning Wrap Mincon Group Sandvik report Q1 results; Mining continues to see challenges Sandvik released its first quarter results midday yesterday, for the period to March, Recommendation: Hold recording an adjusted operating profit decline of 19% yoy. Of relevance to Mincon is the Closing Price: €0.76 commentary on the mining division, which saw organic order intake down 8% yoy with Nuala McMahon revenues “largely stable at -1%”. The group did note Europe and Australia “recorded a +353-1-641 0498 positive development in revenue”. [email protected] On the conference call management noted the mining segment “continues to see challenges”, which shouldn’t come as a surprise. Mincon has revenue exposure of c.21% to Australia and c.47% to Europe, the Middle East and Africa. While uncertainty remains in the group’s core market, Mincon’s smaller and niche offering has seen it outperform its peers.
