eQ operates in the financial services industry. The company is a brokerage firm and offers a wide range of financial services within corporate finance and asset management. Financial services include a range of structured products, insurance, private equity funds and other investment alternatives. Investments are found across the global financial market and across a number of sectors. The company's headquarters are located in Helsinki.

eQ once again published the quarterly reports for its open-ended real estate funds yesterday. The reports are very extensive, and they provide essentially all relevant information related to the funds. I have personally criticized open-ended real estate funds specifically for the lack of transparency, and these reports answer that call well. One can hope that these become the standard for the entire industry.  Naturally, there haven’t been any massive changes in the reports since Q3. In the big picture, the situation in YKK (eQ Community Properties) is still quite good in my opinion, and the fund is currently generating a ~3% cash flow yield. On top of this, there are value increases, which are a realistic assumption in the long term given the portfolio. There is also only a limited queue of unpaid redemptions. As for Commercial Properties (Liikekiinteistöt), the situation is very grim. Vacancy is high, cash flow yield is weak, and there is a massive queue of redemptions. The office situation is particularly concerning. The net rental yield for the portfolio’s offices is 3.8%, which speaks to a severe vacancy problem. It is clear that an assumption of rising occupancy rates has been baked into those appraisals, as that 3.8% is far too low for offices. The problem with the Commercial Properties fund is that offices make up 40% of the portfolio, but selling them in this market with high vacancies is difficult. On the other hand, if a lot of other properties are sold, the share of offices will increase even further and the portfolio structure will suffer. The portfolio’s return has also remained weak, and 2025 was the third significantly negative year. As a side note, I take my hat off to eQ for genuinely writing down the values of their funds substantially.            eq.fi              eq-liikekiinteistot-talouskatsaus-q4-2025.pdf    1478.38 KB                                       eq.fi              eq-yhteiskuntakiinteistot-talouskatsaus-q4-2025.pdf    1432.06 KB

eQ continues to make high-profile appointments. Now a new head for international operations. Pertti Vanhanen on nimitetty eQ:n kansainvälisestä liiketoiminnasta vastaavaksi johtajaksi - Inderes I have never met the gentleman in question, but based on his CV, it is indeed a strong hire. eQ is clearly serious about its international expansion, and the current team should already have the prerequisites to achieve results. At the same time, I would remind you that sales cycles as an unknown firm in new markets are long.

Regarding eQ, I think PE can be divided into two parts: 1) new sales volume of funds in the future  and 2) performance fees . Let’s start with those new sales! I think there are two dimensions here: 1) the general attractiveness of PE funds, 2) eQ’s position in the domestic market (which in practice correlates largely with the quality of the company’s products). Almost all institutional surveys still indicate that institutions (and investors in general) want to increase their allocations to PE in their portfolios (both in Finland and globally). I don’t believe there will be any sudden change in this trend, even though I think it is completely clear that when looking at the PE market as a whole, returns cannot be what they have historically been. I justify this purely by the fact that PE has become too popular and many drivers generating outperformance have disappeared from the market (such as the ability to buy cheap, because there are simply too many buyers). Here is my podcast on the topic  : Pääomasijoittaminen, vieraana Saku Sairanen | inderesPodi 239 - Inderes If we look at eQ’s position in the domestic PE field, eQ is indeed still a completely dominant market leader:  Source: eQ’s strategy presentation Q4’25. However, there has been a lot more competition in Finland, which further highlights the importance of returns as a differentiator. And this leads us nicely to point 2, performance fees! This has been the hot potato regarding eQ for the last couple of years. Huge amounts of performance fees are expected to come in (eQ’s own estimates for performance fees are in the images):   Source: eQ annual report 25: https://www.eq.fi/~/media/files/konserni/vuosikertomukset/eq_vuosikertomus_2025.pdf?la=fi It is clear that the market currently does not believe in the realization of these performance fees (market cap 400m vs. 165m perf fees) on this scale. This uncertainty and skepticism has grown in recent years as performance fees have been constantly kicked down the road due to the slow exit market. In my opinion, these performance fees in the coming years play a very central role for eQ. If they come through on the promised scale, the fund returns will have been good, and this helps maintain the company’s leading position in the growing domestic market. Conversely, if the performance fees do not materialize, it means returns have remained at a lackluster level, and in this industry, that has generally always meant weaker new sales. This naturally reflects on the company’s chances of success abroad, as it’s useless to go to the international arena offering mediocre products.  Then to your question about Private Credit and PE software. I wouldn’t draw a very large parallel to eQ there. eQ only has a couple of older funds in PC, and in PE, as far as I understand, the company’s strategies are not software-focused in any way. I would focus more on the company’s own game, of which we will see a lot of evidence this year, as significant capital should be raised for several PE products and performance fees should start to materialize more briskly

Here is the company report from Sauli after Q4.  There were no surprises in the Q4 figures, and the main focus of the day was on the new strategy. The main lines and targets of the strategy were quite well in line with our forecasts, and the company is seeking a strong earnings turnaround in the coming years. Forecast changes have remained moderate, and we expect earnings to return to growth starting from 2026. In our view, the share is fairly priced, and due to the uncertainty related to earnings growth, we do not see the risk/reward ratio as sufficiently attractive. We reiterate our reduce recommendation with a target price of 11 euros. Quoted from the report: The share is cheap if financial targets are met eQ is targeting an operating profit of approximately EUR 55 million for 2030, and with the share count considering current option programs, this would mean earnings per share of slightly over EUR 1.0. At this stage, eQ would be firmly back on a growth path and its risk level would be lower than at present, so the acceptable valuation level would be higher than current levels. With an acceptable P/E ratio at the 15-20x level, the corresponding share price would be EUR 16-21. The company would also pay ~3-4 euros in dividends in the meantime, meaning the total return on the share would be roughly 100-150% during the strategy period. The corresponding annual return would be an excellent 20-25%. This illustrative calculation underlines the company’s potential, provided it succeeds in implementing its strategy.                   Inderes              eQ Q4'25: Uudella strategialla ylös tuloskuopasta - Inderes    Q4-numeroissa ei ollut yllätyksiä ja päivän päähuomio kohdistui uuteen strategiaan. Strategian päälinjat sekä tavoitteet olivat varsin hyvin linjassa ennusteidemme kanssa, ja yhtiö hakee voimakasta tuloskäännettä lähivuosilta.

In case anyone missed it, here are eQ’s strategy slides from today:            eq.fi              eq-strategia-2030_3_2_2026.pdf    2.50 MB                            Unfortunately, no recording of the results briefing is available, so this slide deck will have to suffice. Here are also a few key highlights   PE customer breakdown published for the first time, and that usability is certainly at a staggering level.  Different customer groups and their needs (also applies to other asset managers)  The whole strategy in a nutshell.

eQ: Info on fund distribution units: eQ - Tietoa eQ Rahastojen tuotto-osuuksien omistajille jaettavasta tuotosta 2026 Regarding the Commercial Real Estate Fund, the “good” news is that distribution units do not need to be paid out as sales have fallen below acquisition prices. This is a good thing because it doesn’t further strain the fund’s difficult liquidity situation. YKK pays its ~26 MEUR, which does not materially change the fund’s liquidity position.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the company’s other “pillar,” namely PE funds. Quite grim news is coming from across the pond regarding the PE field, especially about private credit players and those with high software exposure. It might be difficult to sell PE funds to the average institutional investor given the market conditions, but for a more opportunistic investor, a crisis could present very attractive opportunities, for example, in buyout-type funds targeting more traditional industries. These solutions should be marketed to clients who are able to think cross-cyclically in their investment process, and there aren’t exactly a lot of those players around here. I really hope that now, as the future strategy is specifically based on growing in PE, the company would start communicating even more transparently about the PE landscape and the outlook for the funds. Currently, the visibility is quite poor, and one can’t help but wonder if the guys actually know what they are doing after all. @Sauli_Vilen, what are your thoughts on the difficult PE situation and its impact on eQ’s outlook?
