Margin compression from 11.6% to 1%

• Over the last 12 months, Altri SGPS reported a net profit margin of 1%, compared with 11.6% a year earlier, with trailing revenue of €640.7 million and net income of €6.4 million.
• Consensus narrative expects margins to move into higher value territory over time. However, the current 1% margin and a large €8.8 million one off gain create a tension point between the story of improving profitability and the reality of thin recent earnings.
  • Analysts are assuming margins could reach about 15.2% in a few years, but the latest 12 month profit base of €6.4 million is well below that narrative starting point.
  • The presence of a one off gain in such a small profit pool means a meaningful portion of recent earnings is not from recurring operations, which matters when thinking about how durable any margin recovery might be.

Volatile earnings path despite €640.7 million sales

• Quarterly net income swung from €17.6 million in Q4 2024 to €7.6 million in Q1 2025, €6.4 million in Q2 2025, a loss of €1.7 million in Q3 2025, €9.0 million in Q4 2025, and a loss of €7.3 million in Q1 2026, even as quarterly revenue stayed in a band of about €153.3 million to €188.9 million.
• For bullish investors who see earnings climbing sharply over time, this choppy pattern gives them both a support and a challenge, as it shows the top line has been relatively steady while profit has moved around a lot.
  • On the supportive side for bulls, the latest trailing 12 month revenue of €640.7 million gives a base for any future margin improvement to potentially have a meaningful euro impact if profitability normalizes.
  • On the challenging side, periods like Q3 2025 and Q1 2026, where small or sizeable losses appeared despite revenue above €150 million, underline how sensitive the current earnings profile is to costs and any pricing pressure.

P/E of 149x versus DCF fair value

• Based on the latest figures, Altri SGPS trades at a trailing P/E of about 149.2x, compared with industry and peer averages of 21.8x and 18.3x, while also being cited as trading around 48.6% below a DCF fair value of €9.09 per share at a current share price of €4.68.
• Consensus narrative highlights a gap between the current share price and higher long term earnings expectations, and these valuation markers frame that discussion quite starkly.
  • On one side, the P/E of roughly 149x sits far above the 21.8x industry reference point, which is hard to reconcile with the recent 1% net margin and modest trailing profits of €6.4 million.
  • On the other side, the cited discount to a €9.09 DCF fair value and analyst expectations that earnings could be much higher a few years out leave room for investors to debate whether today’s multiple reflects depressed earnings or simply a rich valuation on current fundamentals.
