Buzzi Unicem (BUY)

Self-help and market restructuring to provide most of EBITDA growth in 2019E While since 2012, Buzzi’s EBITDA growth has been mainly driven by the US

market recovery, we see now >80% of EBITDA growth excl. FX impact in 2019E coming from Italy and Germany. With conservative volumes assumptions in these two countries (resp. -3% and 0%), the improvement comes exclusively from selfhelp and positive impact from restructuring on prices. In the US, we include in our forecasts another year of margin decrease for 2019E - we believe this could prove conservative as Ash Grove acquisition by CRH should have a positive impact on the Mississippi region cement prices (>70% of Buzzi US cement sales). In spite of these prudent assumptions, DB FY 19E EBITDA forecasts are in line with consensus. With potential upside to our forecasts and consensus and attractive valuation (5.1x 2019E EV/EBITDA, e.g. 25-30% discount vs. cement peers), we see value in the stock: BUY.

Cemex (BUY)

Resilient Mexico and superior US footprint not reflected in valuation

Due to political uncertainty in Mexico and disappointing sets of results, Cemex’s share price has struggled YTD (-36% vs. –22% for other cement stocks). After a tough 2018 we forecast however 11% lfl EBITDA growth in 2019E, of which half is driven by the costs savings program (DB assumes $120m in 2019E out of the $150m target). While political uncertainty in Mexico continues to weigh on the stock, we remain confident on the industry ability to o set currency depreciation by local prices increases – decreasing petcoke prices should also be a tail wind for Cemex as it is a key input cost in Mexico. Macro concerns are mounting in the US, however our analysis shows that Cemex’s footprint still has robust growth ahead. At 6.9x 2019E EV/EBITDA, Cemex trades now at a discount vs. European cement peers for the first time since 2009 while it continues to o er by far the highest FCF yield in the sector (c.13% in 2019): maintain Buy.

CRH (HOLD)

With this note, we transfer primary coverage of CRH from Glynis Johnson to Xavier Marchand with immediate effect.

US infrastructure pick-up unlikely to o set residential slowdown risks: maintain Hold

With c65% of 2019E EBITDA growth coming from the US, we believe CRH shares could continue to be impacted by investors' perception of the US construction cycle. The strong pick-up of highways contracts awards is an encouraging sign pointing at a prolonged infra improvement in the US (ltm contracts awards are up c15% YoY in Sept. 18). We believe however that labor constraints and company's lack of exposure to key US Southern states should limit the benefit of it on CRH volumes. Our analysis on a ordability also suggests US housing slowdown may be now more a structural issue than a temporary phenomenon. In addition, with the self-help e orts only materializing from end of 2019, we see limited scope for upside surprise on the stock. After the recent de-rating on US macro concerns, CRH trades now at 7.1x 2019E EV/EBITDA - slightly below large-cap peers. However with lack of near-term catalysts and risks skewed to the downside on US housing, we remain neutral on the stock: Hold.

Highways contracts awards point at dynamic US infrastructure

Among our stocks, CRH is the most leveraged to the US infrastructure, notably through its Americas Materials division. We estimate that close to 24% of Group Sales and c34% of Group EBITDA are leveraged to US Infra. In this context, strong highways contracts awards in the US are an encouraging sign for the company: ltm highways contracts awards are up 15% YoY in Sept. 18: this should lead to a prolonged improvement of infrastructure works in the US as there is usually a 18m lag between a contract award and the start of the construction work.

Growth could however be limited by CRH footprint and labour constraint

A closer analysis shows however that the infra contracts awards are very uneven in the US. Vulcan flags that ltm contracts awards are up 22% YoY vs. only +5% in non Vulcan states. Our analysis shows limited overlap between Vulcan and CRH US footprints: top 4 Vulcan states (c65% of Group Sales with very strong contracts awards) account for just 10% of CRH US sales. As such we see risks that contracts awards on CRH footprint are closer to mid-single. In the meantime, our analysis shows that US labor constraints could slowdown US construction output as productivity by construction worker in real-terms is back to 2006 peak while the employment market is very tight.

US resi slowdown may be here to last

Our analysis confirms that housing a ordability has become an issue in the US: medium home price / medium income for new homes is back to 2006 as home prices have consistently increased above wages increase since the start of the US recovery in 2012. As a result, the share of high risk mortgages has also increased to levels close to 2006. In a context of rising rates in the US and an unlikely catchup of wage with homes prices, we believe that the housing slowdown could be here to last and see downside risks to US housing forecasts.
