Summary
Derichebourg is a European environmental services operator specializing in metal recycling and public-sector services, supported by extensive scrap-collection and processing infrastructure.
Rationale
High price momentum (0.6984) and double-digit ROE (11.89%) are backed by solid fundamental execution, including H1 net income growth of 16.3% and transformative revenue expansion via the Scholz Recycling acquisition.
Material risks
- 1Balance sheet leverage increased significantly to €1.187 billion in post-acquisition net debt, compounded by higher interest expense from €800 million in senior green notes priced at 5.375%–5.875%.
- 2High vulnerability to underlying metal price volatility, European steelmaker demand cycles, and regional industrial production volumes.
