Lindex Group operates in the retail sector. The Group manages a number of stores in major shopping centres and large commercial premises located throughout the Nordic market. The Group is a retailer of several brands and the range consists of clothing, shoes and related accessories. The company has its headquarters in Helsinki.

To my understanding, there are no other bonds/loans or similar instruments that would prevent dividend payments. If there’s no readiness to pay dividends this year, I will be truly surprised and even more disappointed.

Item 8 states that “the board does not propose a dividend to be distributed for the 2025 financial year” Kutsu Lindex Group Oyj:n varsinaiseen yhtiökokoukseen - LindexGroup Shareholders always have the right to ask questions at the General Meeting, so one could get further clarification through that as to when the company intends to distribute dividends. In practice, it depends on those bonds; they have to be paid off if the company wants to distribute dividends later. Assuming they were paid off this year and the AGM had passed the board’s proposal not to pay a dividend, it would require an Extraordinary General Meeting to be able to pay one this year. Additionally, there may be other bonds maturing later, so if they have the same condition prohibiting dividend payments, then we’ll be sitting here high and dry for the foreseeable future .

So, is there any chance that information regarding the dividend for this year will still be provided at the AGM on March 26th?

Lindex is currently focused on women’s fashion. Something small that has good products and where the products have a high resale value, makes a good profit, but for some reason the owners want to exit. Retirement and no successor can be found, or something like that. There are all sorts of reasons and potential acquisition targets.

Which brands do you think are potential acquisitions with Lindex’s resources?

In my opinion, Stockmann is primarily a department store, whereas LVMH is a brand house. Stockmann does, of course, have Lindex (or vice versa) and its own private label brands, but I don’t see Stockmann having the capacity to acquire an international and established brand. Let alone several.

After all, LVMH grew by consolidating fashion houses. The world is certainly full of good brands that can be added to one’s portfolio.

<p>We expect Lindex's result to fall from the exceptionally high level in recent years and department stores to remain clearly cash flow negative in coming years, resulting in a cash-adjusted P/E of about 12x in 2023-24. We believe this is a neutral level and do not expect significant earnings growth even in the medium term. Lindex's large logistics investment in 2022-23 will reduce the company's net cash and we do not expect dividends for the next few years. </p> 

Stockmann (Initiation of Coverage): Department stores still a source of grief
