Rapala VMC: Meager catch will improve in coming years
Result-wise Rapala's H1 report brought no joy and H2 will also remain very modest. In the longer term, earnings growth has clear steps to continue as the journey to reach the full potential of the Rapala brand and the rod & reel category has only started. We cut our 2022 estimates in particular, but also made slight cuts to our estimates for the next few years, as the strategy has progressed in the background. Especially the longer-term expected return remains attractive in a relatively defensive share. Acquisition option also provides support for Rapala’s valuation.
