Aapeli Pursimo

Exel Composites is a manufacturing company. The company manufactures and markets composites used in demanding industrial environments. In addition to its core business, lamination and extrusion are also performed. The largest operations are found around Europe and Asia with customers in the manufacturing and aerospace industries. Exel Composites was founded in 1960 and is headquartered in Vantaa.

Here is a new company report from Aapeli following the Q4 results  Exel’s Q4 operational performance fell short of our expectations, while its order intake reached a record level. In its guidance, the company paved the way for rapid growth in the current year but expected growth to be more heavily weighted toward the second half of the year. Due to the verbal guidance, there is uncertainty regarding the growth trajectory, but we interpret the growth outlook for the early part of the year to be more moderate than our previous expectations. Consequently, our forecasts for the current year were revised downwards, while we kept our forecasts for the coming years almost unchanged. In our view, the stock is largely fairly priced for the current growth phase, which is still in its early stages and involves uncertainties.                   Inderes              Exel Composites Q4'25: Kasvu kiihtyy, mutta kulmakerroin on kysymysmerkki -...    Exelin Q4:n operatiivinen kehitys jäi odotuksistamme, kun taas sen tilauskertymä oli ennätystasolla.

Of course. A contract is a contract and purchases are made at the point when they are needed. Conductor core contracts likely won’t stop here. Exel is in a good position, I really have to take my hat off to the strategy. Exel is completely different now than it was 5-10 years ago.

Very good. Exel will be able to do longer production runs and predictability will improve.

In these conductor core projects, I think agreeing on a minimum level is a good thing, however.  The end customer’s installation schedules naturally determine the delivery schedule, and that can take time while infrastructure is being built, even if the masts are old. I suppose the guidance of ”significant” can be interpreted as strong single-digit growth or higher.  Somehow Exel’s 60 million market cap (despite the debt) is starting to look cheap, even without a particularly significant improvement

Agreed. They should just be honest and admit they have no bargaining power. It also became clear that the customer holds the power regarding the timing of conductor core contracts. The lack of guidance is the cherry on top: they genuinely don’t know where the year is headed, so they aren’t providing any guidance. Quite understandable, but the beating around the bush is completely unnecessary.

This. Plus a half-hour interview  Also, why the need to start fumbling when asked about accounts receivable. It’s obvious that some large accounts simply had bargaining power. For example, have carrots been offered in the other direction in framework agreements?

Feeling pretty much the same here. Well, at least the CEO didn’t try to pump the share price by talking — points for that  But I really have to wonder: why pay Inderes for visibility and interviews if you manage to say… next to nothing in the interview?  At that point, you might as well save both the money and the words.

There were no major surprises in Exel's Q3 results due to the preliminary information provided in the October profit warning. As a result, we made no material operational forecast changes. There was also no change in the short-term outlook compared to the profit warning and with this, all eyes will be on the upcoming CMD (November 13). Given the current market situation, the company's earnings position and the limited room for maneuver with the balance sheet, we believe the stock's risk/return ratio will remain weak for the next 12 months.
