DGAP-News: FinLab AG / Key word(s): Miscellaneous / * GBC Investment Research starts coverage of FinLab AG Frankfurt am Main, 05.11.2015 - GBC AG, one of the leading independent research firms in Germany, has published today an initial research report about FinLab AG (ISIN DE0001218063). The analysts at GBC issued a BUY recommendation for FinLab, a company builder focused on the financial services technologies ("fintech") sector, with a target price of EUR 12.30 per share. On Wednesday, 4 November 2015, FinLab stock closed on XETRA at EUR 9.60 per share. This means GBC's analysis credits FinLab AG stock with upside potential of nearly 30%. Since finalising a reorganisation at the end of 2014, and since then focusing on the fintech area, FinLab AG has already made three investments in the fintech sector investing a total of EUR 5.5 million and committing additional EUR 1.2 million. In addition, FinLab also owns two investments in the traditional financial services area, namely Heliad Equity Partners GmbH & Co. KGaA and Patriarch Multi-Manager GmbH. These profitable investments ensure stable, recurrent cash flows, which allow FinLab to cover on-going costs and make new investments. Hence, different from many other company builders and incubators, FinLab is operating highly profitably and is not dependent on diluting capital increases. GBC estimates that Heliad, the largest of FinLab's investments, has hidden reserves of EUR 3.33 per FinLab share. If these hidden reserves are completely recognised, GBC calculates a fair value for FinLab stock of EUR 13.95 per share.
