Topic: After a historically bad year 2023 for EVDI and the whole sector,

the worst seems to be over, and

we see light at the end of the tunnel for EVDI. Here is why:

The real-estate sector shows first signs of a recovery. Apart from

normalizing construction cost inflation

(4.3% in Q4'23 vs 16.9% in Q4'22), real estate prices are coming down as

well, as shown by the Q3

housing price index (-10.2% yoy). That paired with declining financing

rates (10y swap rates are -95bps

since October), should allow for a revitalization of the industry in 2024

that should bode well for EVDI.

Cross-selling potential with wevest. Once the integration of wevest is

completed, we expect crossselling

potentials between the wevestŽs and EVDIŽs customer base strengthening the

client relationship.

ECSP license enable new products. The recently granted ECSP license, allows

EVDI to offer new

products such as whole loans and senior loans. On top, cross-country

generation and financing of loans

is possible. That, paired with the wevest license which allows for loans

with a volume of up to EUR 8m,

should drive sales going forward.

Interesting opportunities in the renewable space. Like its peer Exporo,

EVDI could further diversify its

business by additionally offering renewable energy projects such as solar

parks on its platform. We observe

that the demand for such products on the investor as well as on the project

developer side is growing.

While the margins (spreads) in this space are lower due to lower interest

expenses, the risks are

lower as well.

Apart from that, EVDI announced changes in the management board end of last

year. Tobias Barten

(former Co-CEO) left the company to take over as CEO of EVDIŽs partner

Engel&Völkers Capital. Karl

Poerschke, the former Head of Finance succeeded in the role of COO. While

we consider Karl as a perfect

match, the new role of Tobias should further fuel collaborations between

EVDI and EVC.

While we see a lot of upside in the mid-term, we remain conservative for

the moment, trimming our estimates

for FY23 and beyond in order to reflect the weak industry sentiment with

insolvencies and delays

that could cause impairments.

HOLD with a reduced PT of EUR 4.80, based on DCF.
