“Innovative 3D printing company with focus on industry and biotechnology” High revenue potential through attractive growth markets; price target: € 6.00 and BUY rating
Solid World Group S.p.A. specialises in 3D printing and integration services for design and production departments to develop innovative solutions based on 3D printing. Recently, BIO3DMODEL and BIO3DPRINTING have also joined the group, complementing their portfolio in the biomedical field. The group occupies every process step of 3D technology from design to printing to structuring the production process of prototypes or finished products. So far, the company is mainly active in the Italian market for additive manufacturing. This market is flanked by activities in the biomedical sector, in photovoltaic construction and in the construction of production lines for industrial companies, for example.
The company, which has been listed in the Euronext Growth Milan segment since 2022, has grown by an average of 5.9% per year over the past three financial years, with an EBITDA margin in the mid-single digits. The increase in turnover is attributable to both organic and inorganic growth.
In the past 2022 business year, Solid World Group S.p.A. was able to continue its positive business development with revenues of € 57.75 million, thus recording a moderate increase in revenues of 4.8% (previous year: € 55.09 million). EBITDA increased disproportionately by 18.8% to € 4.02 million (previous year: € 3.82 million). Their growth course was also continued in the first half of 2023 with an increase in turnover of 9.3% to € 33.14 million (previous year: € 30.31 million). A smaller company acquisition (purchase price: € 2.6 million) also had a supporting effect here. EBITDA rose to € 2.76 million (previous year: € 2.48 million), which corresponds to a constant EBITDA margin of 8.3% (previous year: 8.2%).
The Group is active in numerous growth markets such as Industry 4.0, 3D printing, renewable energies and biomedicine. In the area of Industry 4.0, the Group is increasingly focusing on the distribution of its own software Integr@ and is launching a cooperation in the aerospace industry. In addition, the Solid World Group is pushing the introduction of the SolidFactory platform, which offers customised consulting for the automation of production processes. Through an acquisition, the Solid World Group is also active in the renewable energy segment and can now offer its customers machines for the construction of photovoltaic plants. In the biomedical sector, Solid World Group has founded two start-ups in collaboration with the University of Pisa: BIO3DMODEL and BIO3DPRINTING. The start-up BIO3DPRINTING has developed a so-called electrospider that makes it possible to produce human cell constructs using the first 3D bio-printing technology. This enables missing organs to be produced from specific patient cells and transplanted. As part of its internationalisation strategy, the Group is targeting the Middle Eastern market, in particular to offer solutions in the biomedical field.
For the current financial year 2023, we expect mid-single-digit revenue growth to € 62.37 million and slightly higher profitability. On this basis, we have valued Solid World Group S.p.A. using our DCF model and determined a fair value of € 6.00 per share. Due to the positive business outlook, we assign a BUY rating and see good future share price potential.
