A simple sum-of-the-parts valuation gives a value that is around 87% higher than what is reflected in the current market capitalization.
The company’s business units are benefiting from favorable market conditions, while current share prices continue to reflect a significant discount to the estimated intrinsic value. This valuation gap is largely attributed to the market’s limited perception of the company’s medium-term growth potential. Projections indicate a gradual acceleration across core segments (Building & Civil Engineering) in line with the growth of the order book, while revenues are expected to lag due to extended conversion cycles associated with increasingly complex projects that generate income over longer periods.
Implenia is pursuing an asset-light growth strategy, aimed at enhancing financial flexibility and improving return on capital. By divesting capital-intensive units, such as its Equipment & Technology Services business in Austria, and acquiring service-oriented companies like Wincasa, Implenia is shifting toward scalable, high-margin activities. This strategic focus supports sustainable growth with reduced capital expenditure and increased operational efficiency. Growth is driven further by the development of high-margin business areas through a combination of organic initiatives, targeted acquisitions, sector-focused specialisation and deeper integration along the value chain.
