Bpost invests 180 million euros: new opportunities for Belgium!
Bpost, the leading Belgian provider of postal services, has announced that it will make annual investments of 160 to 180 million euros in the coming years. This measure is part of a broader plan to expand the range of services and further increase efficiency in the areas of parcel shipping and letter delivery. The current price of the share is 1.892 euros, which corresponds to a change of -0.63%. This resulted from the market closing on June 2, 2025 at 5:35 p.m. on Euronext Bruxelles.
Bpost offers a variety of services, including parcel shipping, logistics and express transport, as well as the collection and delivery of letters, postcards, advertising flyers and newspapers. The company also sells postal products and offers document management services. This diverse range of services will be further expanded through the new investments in order to meet the growing demands of the market.
Financial results and forecasts
The group will announce its results for the first quarter of 2025 on May 9th. Bpost has already announced an adjusted EBIT of 41.6 million euros, which is above the consensus forecast of 34.2 million euros. This positive result could boost investor confidence and support the share price.
In addition, the company announced that it is expanding its partnership with Ria Money Transfer, which could consolidate its position in the international money transfer business. The last closing price of 1.892 euros offers an upside potential of 22.83% for investors, according to the average target price of 2.324 euros. The company valuation is between 2.27 billion and 370 billion euros, with the P/E ratio forecast at 4.73x for 2025.
Future investments and strategic partnerships
Bpost also plans to issue bonds worth €1 billion to support the refinancing of a bridge facility. This shows the company's commitment to strategically managing its financial resources and financing new projects. The European Commission has also approved Bpost's purchase of the French company Staci, supporting its expansion into new markets.
In conclusion, Bpost not only maintains its market share in Belgium, but also relies on a variety of strategic partnerships and investments to drive growth in the coming years. Results for the year ended December 31, 2024 will be announced on February 28, 2025, which should provide further insight into the Company's financial position.
