Reason: Initiating coverage
A ticket of admission to sustainable movement
Mobility services will change urban planning development
Strong underlying market CAGR of 30% (’19e-’30e)
We like high ambitions and ESG exposure – BUY
Sustainability and flexibility drive the equity story
GreenMobility, a First North Nasdaq-listed supplier of electric cars for
flexible rental, has operated in Denmark since 2016. It now has 400 city
cars in the Copenhagen area and (with a new franchise agreement in
Oslo with NSB) 650 cars in total as of the start of 2019. The company
seeks to expand its international presence by closing more franchise
contracts. Its current objective is to reach another 15+ cities by 2021,
with ~635,000 customers (vs. 40,000 in 2018). GreenMobility recently
raised DKK 35m via a share issue to finance its strategic objectives. We
project sales and corresponding earnings to be in line with the
company’s 2021 strategic objectives, based on an 8% franchise fee. We
find a profitable setup in Copenhagen this year and believe that in order
to finance the company’s goals, it will need to raise additional capital.
Strong underlying market (CAGR ~30%) with big players
We expect the mobility market to grow by a CAGR of ~30% (2019e-
2030e), reflecting a strong market driven by three global megatrends:
urbanisation, sustainability and economics. The company seeks to meet
the expected demand for environmentally friendly city cars, which
continues to increase in Europe and is currently catered to by BMW, VW
and Daimler.
We like the company’s long-term plans, initiate with BUY
We value the company on a DCF basis (WACC: 11.3%, beta 1.8, LT
sales 30% and LT EBITA of 10%), and a peer analysis of rental and
traditional car companies (0.6x EV/sales ’21e/7.4x EV/EBITDA ’21e). In
addition, we have analysed M&A activity in the space, which we have
included given our assessment of a ~7.5% chance that the company will
become an acquisition target. We arrive at a 12-month target price of
DKK 120, and initiate with a BUY. We believe that current trading levels
represent an attractive entry-point, where announcements of the
company’s franchise agreements expected soon are the triggers.

OpportunitiesThe underlying market is healthy and projected to remain
strong. Environmentally-friendly flexible car rental is
enjoying impressive growth, and users have already began
to replace their personal vehicles. The success of
GreenMobility is dependent on its ability to engage in
franchise agreements on the same scale as its recent
collaboration with NSB in Oslo. The company has high
ambitions to reach ~450,000 customers with full potential
of 1.4m and increase its presence by an additional 15
cities by 2021. In the long-run, GreenMobility wants to
explore options to connect its car batteries to the power
grid, which looks attractive.
RisksThe established car companies Daimler, BMW and Fiat
own the three largest competitors. In addition, VW recently
announced plans to enter the market. The underlying
market is growing, but if GreenMobility’s franchise model
does not create the traction desired, the company will not
be able to expand organically without large capital
injections.

Investment case
GreenMobility is the only stock market listed car-sharing company (besides the
small 4Mobility in Poland) that affords investors the opportunity to gain exposure
to a CAGR 30% market, where consumers are adapting their transportation habits
to include car sharing. GreenMobility is already present in two markets
(Copenhagen and Oslo), and is looking to expand to 15+ cities by 2021. Given its
recent share emission and our strategic review, we find this target plausible. We
have created a scenario analysis, however, based on the potential traction to be
gained in the various markets. Our base case envisages ~630,000 customers by
2021e with ~3,000 cars. Based on these assumptions in our SOTP valuation, we
set a target price of DKK 120 and initiate coverage with a BUY recommendation.
50% of car owners can save money through shared mobility From a strategic perspective, mobility is separated into three options: short-distance
(scooters, bicycles and walking), mid-distance (cars and car mobility) and long-
distance (trains) transportation. Urbanised cities need a mix of all three, where
GreenMobility is geared to the mid-distance traveller. The underlying market for
flexible mid-size mobility services in Europe is strong. According to studies by the
Boston Consulting Group1, Berg Insight2 and McKinsey Consulting3, it makes sense
for 50% of car owners to replace their car with flexible mobility options.
In cities such as Barcelona, Berlin and Copenhagen, which have a concentrated
mobility market, there are already signs that 5-10% of car owners are selling their
cars in favour of mobility options according to the studied listed above and that
significantly more are considering this.
Strong underlying market Given the strong underlying market, there has been a consolidation of mobility
options, most notably the merger in March 2018 between Car2Go (Daimler) and
DriveNow (BMW), which now owns 66% of the European flexible mobility fleet.
There are ~12 large mobility players on the European market, and GreenMobility is
the only listed company.

Long term, we acknowledge a consolidated market; however, in the short to mid-
term, there is a general high underlying consumer demand where only the “first-
mover” consumers have entered the market. As it matures, we believe the
European target group will expand from ~2.5m people today to 80% of the 10m
people (x3.2 to ~8m 20-29 year old people) that live in the top 37 ‘most mobile’
cities in Europe in terms of the number of people cross-correlated with the GDP per
capita and concentration of them per square kilometre.
GreenMobility’s objectives GreenMobility is only active in two cities, own operations in Copenhagen and has a
franchise with NSB in Oslo. With a strong brand, however, the company wants to
explore franchise, joint-venture and/or initiate other forms of partnerships
(henceforth “franchise”) to introduce its concept to the rest of Europe. It has already
entered into several discussions with public transportation companies, and
companies with similar offerings, seeking exposure to a larger customer group. We
project EBIT margin of 4% for 2021e, given the ongoing expansion of activities into
+15 cities. In 2019, the company guides for 3-4 new city agreements, where we
estimate 3 agreements and for 2020 it guides for another 3-4 cities, where we
estimate 5 agreements. This will equate to 10 of its 15+ cities by the end of 2020.
In our base case, we expect the company to have ~635,000 customers by 2021e,
with 2,955 cars in total and a base customer traction of 2.9 trips annually per
customer, with 27 minutes driven. We estimate that the price of minutes will
increase by 23% a year to DKK 2.9 (ex. VAT) by 2021e.
Valuation methodologies: Peers, M&A and DCF We base our valuation on a successful implementation of GreenMobility’s
objectives. We have valued GreenMobility in three stages. First, we have evaluated
the EV/Sales and EV/EBITDA trading levels of car-sharing company, Lyft, rental car
companies (e.g. Avis, Hertz) and traditional car companies (e.g. Tesla, VW, BMW,
and Daimler) and have taken the median summary EV of our expected DKK 9m
EBITDA estimate for 2021e earnings and DKK 83m for 2019 sales.
In addition, we have analysed the major M&A transactions in the mobility space
over the past five years, where we have witnessed a significant brand premium
enterprise value paid relative to the number of cars that the target companies have
operated. With an estimated 7.5% likelihood of takeover, we have included this
high-value premium in our estimates.
Last, our DCF model applies a WACC of 11.3% beta 1.8 (extra risk 2.5%) and LT
sales growth of 30% (this GreenMobility strives for) with LT EBITA margin of 10%.

A robust shared mobility franchisor
GreenMobility has a proven concept in the Copenhagen and Oslo car sharing
markets. Its operations in Oslo are its first franchise concept, and the company
expects to create at least 10-15 similar deals by 2021. GreenMobility says it is
already in preliminary negotiations with potential franchisees, including
companies that already have a large customer base, such as public
transportation companies. GreenMobility only operates 650 cars, a number which
we expect to increase five-fold to 3,000 cars, in order to reach the company’s
2021 ambitions.
Investor exposure to the growing car sharing market GreenMobility is a Nasdaq-listed supplier of electric cars for flexible rental, and has
operated in Denmark since 2016. It currently has 400 city cars in the Copenhagen
area and (with its recent franchise agreement in Oslo) 650 cars in total. The
company is seeking to expand its international presence by entering into more
leasing contracts. Its current objective is to reach another 15+ cities before 2021.
A proven mobility company Drivers in GreenMobility’s cars are charged by the minute or by pre-set subscription,
and the vehicles can be dropped off anywhere in the ‘home zone,’ which covers a
majority of the Copenhagen city centre. The core service is available via four core
products:
City Car Go, which is a pay as you go product (DKK 4/minute).
Prepaid minutes, 200 prepaid minutes for DKK 420 (corresponding to DKK
2.10/minute).
City Car Flex, which is a fixed rate for daily rentals (DKK 595).
City Car Plus, which is an offering that provides 20 hours of free usage for a
fixed rate (DKK 1,195/month).
Parking, power and basic insurance are included in the fee. GreenMobility optimises
the operation by using a designated street crew that handles charging, cleaning and
relocation of the cars. It operates several charging spots in Copenhagen, which are
mobility hubs that gather available cars and provide designated parking spots,
similar to station-based car sharing.
When a customer wants to rent a GreenMobility car, he/she will reserve it on the
app for 30 minutes. This has been a challenge for GreenMobility, where in mid-
GreenMobility leases 650 Renault Zoes, consumer-accessed by an app
Source: ABG Sundal Collier, company data
Greenmobility
6 May 2019 ABG Sundal Collier 8
2018, one-third of reservations did not result in a trip. Therefore, it has initiated a fee
where after the first 30 minutes of reservation, the fee is DKK 1 per minute.
According to the company, this has already shown positive results and now only
20% of reservations did not result in a trip.
Fleet of electric Renault Zoes GreenMobility leases Renault Zoe-models with high specifications via Autolease (a
subsidiary of DNB Bank ASA). The cars are accessed via an app, have automatic
transmissions and come with a GPS. In addition, the vehicles have an emergency
call button, allowing the car’s system to call GreenMobility support for any problems
and enquiries. The system itself is developed (and leased) from the French
company Vulog. The company is open to exploring other vehicle types.
The leasing contracts on the cars are fixed for four years, and will thus expire in
Copenhagen between August and December of 2020. The cars are fitted with EUR
~400-800 of custom hardware and depreciate over the four years at ~DKK 3,000 a
year. GreenMobility gradually updated its fleet with newer vehicles. According to the
company, it is able negotiate more favourable prices and attract higher performing
cars. Battery life in particular is an element that GreenMobility is looking to improve.
Flexible customer interaction with a pay-per-minute model
Customers can locate a GreenMobility car at a desired place via an app, and have
previously registered their information (including driving license). Customers pay per
minute and must park the car within the city’s zone limits following completion of the
journey. Since its launch in 2016, GreenMobility has replaced 30-40 of its initial 400
cars. This is typically due to technical issues and some customer mismanagement.

Operational activities GreenMobility has a centralised fleet management service. Each car receives a
service every 3.5 days, consisting of cleaning, powering up the battery and any
issues related to customer complaints about a particular car. This activity is
conducted by so-called “runners”. They are 75% part-time staff (and mostly
students) who receive a checklist on which activities to conduct. GreenMobility
attempts to have customers help with the process of powering batteries by offering
them incentives.
The checklist is data-driven, which is part of the package that GreenMobility
supplies to its franchisees. GreenMobility aims to reduce its part-time staff by
creating incentives for customers to charge their cars once a trip has finalised. This
has so far been successful in reducing its administration expenses (relative to sales)
by ~20pp in Q1’19. The company has said that some senior customers have taken it
as a hobby to charge GreenMobility cars and transfer their incentive points to their
family members.
Franchise model GreenMobility wants to expand into 15+ cities, and to have ~500,000 customers by
2021. To achieve this, it wants to attract franchise takers that either have exposure
to a large customer network or perhaps have already engaged in transportation
activities (such as public transportation). The brand is trademarked, but a title can
be added to the logo, e.g. in Europe “GreenMobility – services by NSB”.
Charging
GreenMobility operates its own ‘hotspots,’ which are locations with easy access to
parking and charging facilities. The hotspots are fitted with 22 KW charging stations,
which can charge the car in less than hour. Typical charging stations are three times
longer.
In addition, GreenMobility has parking space collaborations with Q-park and
APCOA, through which franchise customers can access parking. NSB in Norway
has begun similar hotspot operations, investing DKK 350,000 in related
infrastructure.

Data options In February 2019, the Danish Technical University (DTU), Sweco and the Danish
road directorate (responsible for the Danish roads) announced, with GreenMobility,
a project where its data-collecting installations were implemented in their cars in
Copenhagen.
The intention is to collect data to better restore roads in critical areas. GreenMobility
collects a large amount of data and, in addition, aims to be a data supplier to
various private and public institutions in a similar way. In the long-run, the company
wants to explore options regarding co-generation and joining the battery of cars on
a vehicle grid. We will follow this process accordingly.
Customer success During the past two years, GreenMobility has managed to increase its customer
base five-fold. According to an internal study named “Din Bybil feedback”, the
company has achieved an 89% ‘satisfactory’ rating. Sixteen percent of customers
say that they would consider giving up their own vehicle in favour of GreenMobility.
Four and a half percent say that they have already sold their cars in favour of the
fleet4. GreenMobility states that 20-25% of its customers are monthly users, and
70% are men. The majority of customers are in their 20s and live in the city.

Can car sharing replace car sales?
A new wave of peer-to-peer, access-driven services and businesses are
shaking up established business models. The sharing economy represents a
paradigm shift in how consumers and businesses look at ownership and
consumption. The concept uses Internet technologies to connect groups of
people and enterprises online, so that property, services, skills and other
resources can be shared and put to better use. The automotive and personal
mobility service sectors have long been a key part of the sharing economy,
with services like car sharing, carpooling, ridesharing and ride-sourcing. We
expect the market to account for 23% of new vehicle sales by 2030e,
corresponding to a CAGR of 30%.
Urbanisation and sustainability drive the market The car sharing market is driven by three global megatrends: urbanisation,
sustainability and economics. GreenMobility seeks to meet the expected demand
for environmentally friendly city cars, which continues to increase in Europe. The
company offers easy, convenient, and sustainable transportation to customers who
want flexibility.
The city cars are located, reserved and unlocked using a ‘Bybil’ app, and the
customers pay per minute to use the car. GreenMobility operates with a “free float
vehicle” model, so that customers can leave the car within a specified zone once
their journey is completed.
Current mobility options need to be consolidated GreenMobility is one of two listed companies exposed to the car sharing market,
with a CAGR of 30% from 2018-2030e. Demand is driven by urbanisation, with less
cars (per capita) expected in cities, along with the global focus on sustainability and
technological innovation. There are major car manufacturers in the industry, where
Daimler and BMW recently merged their operations. On 16 November, Volkswagen

announced that it would invest EUR ~44bn in e-mobility, autonomous driving, new
mobility services and digitalisation of plants through 2023.5 We believe this is a sign
that the traditional car manufacturers acknowledge the reduction in car sales and
subsequent alternative solutions.

Investor exposure to a CAGR 30% market (2018-2030e) Car sharing is a growth industry. Estimates from McKinsey6 consulting projects
indicate that the shared automobile mobility market will account for up to 23% of
new vehicle sales by 2030, and should grow with a CAGR of ~30% for the next 12
years. One growth driver is the advanced technology that makes it practical to rent
cars relatively impulsively. A study by the University of California (UCLA)7 found that
cars are parked 95% of the time, on average, motivating the use of ride-hailing
services like Uber, autonomous vehicles and shared mobility.
Based on the number of cars and users, we multiply GreenMobility’s ratios of
revenue per customer and revenue per vehicle. On the basis of these estimates, we
assess the global value of the car sharing market to be worth DKK 12.4bn. We
expect that to double by 2021. GreenMobility currently holds ~1% of the total
market.

Does it make financial sense to replace cars? The city of Munich sponsored a comprehensive study to evaluate how consumers
feel about switching their private vehicles in favour of shared mobility options. In that
city, the trend is quite clear. Roughly 15% have already given up their cars, ~42%
chose not to purchase a car when shared mobility became popular, and ~26% are
considering giving up their car.
Typically, the less a person uses their car, the less it makes sense to own a private
vehicle, in terms of flexibility and total price. It is estimated that the break-even point
for a small vehicle comes when it is driven less than 7,500km/year (16,000km/year
for an average midsize car).
To find the break-even point for the percent of car owners vs. how many km they
drive a year, BCG estimates show that it does not make economic sense for ~50%
of car owners to give up their cars in favour of a shared mobility option. From an
economic perspective, it does make sense for the vast majority of small car owners
to replace their cars. Owners of large cars, however, may own large cars due to the
space needed to transport family members and various goods. Therefore, small
Shared mobility users in Munich were asked if they would give up their cars

shared mobility cars may not satisfy their needs. We therefore believe that a truer
number is ~20%.
Copenhagen ~ a sweet spot of 325,000 potential customers A car sharing report, sponsored by Copenhagen municipality in collaboration with
Rambøll, looked at the core target group for car sharing in Copenhagen. Sixty
percent of potential customers are below the age of 30, and 80% are men. Two-
thirds of them have an advanced education (bachelor plus masters) and live in the
municipalities of Frederiksberg and Copenhagen. This target group is in line with
what GreenMobility has communicated.
Copenhagen was GreenMobility’s first market, and the company says it will be the
only market it will operate itself (as opposed to a franchisee). It may explore satellite
cities around Copenhagen or in Denmark which can require additional cars and a
low cost setup. Copenhagen has a green agenda, but the company has faced
issues with parking restrictions. Those are expected to be removed in 2019,
however, saving the company an estimated DKK 4m a year in parking licenses.

Room to grow beyond the core target group
According to our calculations, the core target group in Copenhagen is ~17% of the
capital’s population (55,200 males with a higher education and a driver’s license).
This represents 50% upside to GreenMobility’s current number of total customers
and a number that we expect the company to almost reach this year. However, we
assume that with technological advances and the cultural adoption of shared
mobility services, more groups will be tempted over time to use shared mobility
solutions.
For the end of 2019 the company guides for 55,000 customers in Copenhagen
(2018: 38,400). On our estimates, we expect the company to have 124,000
customers by 2021 in Copenhagen. However, we expect that relative activity,
number of trips and average minutes of driving will fall by about 5% a year, partly
financed by 20% higher prices on average.
We estimate that the average customer currently pays DKK 2/minute, which we
expect to increase to DKK 2.2/minute in 2021e. The reason is that the company will
have more City Car Go customers and less Flex and Plus customers (fixed rates
corresponding to a lower minute price). On the other hand, we do not expect a large
price hike, as GreenMobility will await a customer base above 70,000 customers
and 560,000 trips.

Current electric car penetration
Eighty-five percent of European Union member states have favourable
regulations for electric cars, according to the European automobile
manufacturer association (ACEA). Penetration has increased dramatically in
the past years, primarily driven by countries with the highest GDP per capita.
One of the major risk factors for GreenMobility would be regulatory changes.
We find it plausible that EU member states will maintain and expand their
current guidelines, however, because electric car penetration remains low.
Norway has a high adoption rate, and almost 40% of the total cars are electric. This
is mainly the result of favourable regulations and higher GDP per capita, with more
equitably-distributed wealth evenly. Across Europe, we find an average penetration
of around 2.7%. The majority of countries (including Denmark) have a penetration
rate less than 1%, relative to their number of cars.
Several member states are expanding their infrastructure for electric cars without
having a particularly high penetration rate. Typically, the larger countries own the
majority of charging stations, however, with the Netherlands having the most
advanced electric car infrastructure.

Favourable electric car regulations across the EU The majority of European countries have favourable regulations for electric cars. We
expect Poland and the Baltics to follow the trend soon. Several countries, such as
Sweden, Denmark and the UK, have made specific regulations for low-end electric
cars rather than including all electric cars.

Geographical expansion
GreenMobility has invested ~DKK 15m in opex to enter Oslo, as its first new
market. The company expects the cost to enter new markets to be effectively
DKK 4.5m per new market. With ~13-15 cities to go, this implies an opex level
of ~DKK 60-70m in system installations, market research and some additional
service personnel.
We estimate that the company can succeed in its ambitions GreenMobility has outlined its ambition to be among the market leaders in 15 cities
by 2021, and to cater to ~580,000 customers. It aims to enter European cities with
populations of ~1 million. In addition, GreenMobility wants mature cities with large
urban areas, tight population densities, a green political agenda, and the potential to
have a fleet of 600 cars within three years from start. A contract would typically run
3-5 years.
We have listed the cities that best fit this description below. With the ambition of
450,000 users (our estimate is higher at ~635,000 users), this implies ~0.4% of all
city residences and a multiple of 17x GreenMobility’s current customer base.
ABGSC’s screening of cities fitting GreenMobility’s criteria Below we list 37 cities that best fit the expansion criteria that GreenMobility has
disclosed. Italy, Germany, Poland and UK have the cities with the most likely areas
for expansion.
Our filtering is based on the density of the urban population, the GDP per capita (of
20-30 year olds) and corresponding GDP per capita of young people per square
kilometre in the urban area of each city. In addition, we list the number of shared
mobility services in each city. GreenMobility does not want to be a first mover, but
instead wants to establish itself in a mature market.
GreenMobility has recently published maps of its target areas, which we have
highlighted in grey in our study below. We believe their characteristics fit well with
our model. Despite our list fitting well, GreenMobility also views other “private”
factors unrelated to GDP per capita and density, but also which agreements can be

placed and the further objectives and incentives of the individual city. Therefore, its
own list can be prioritised slightly different to ours.
Market assumptions behind our forecast We expect GreenMobility gradually to expand its operations to 15 cities (in total) by
2021e. We see the list above as having the best locations for it to setup franchise
agreements. We expect the findings for our underlying market to hold true, that
there are no fundamental disruptions, but a CAGR 30% market, with more young
people using mobility services, more urbanisation across European cities and a
general decrease in demand for car ownership.

Forecasts
We have consolidated our growth forecasts, creating an operational leverage
model for GreenMobility based on its objectives, market data and (limited)
historical operational achievements. We forecast consolidated sales of DKK 34m
in 2019 (guidance: DKK 32-34m) and DKK 83m (guidance: 75-85m) in 2021. In
addition, we estimate EBIT of DKK -24m in 2019 and positive earnings in 2021, of
DKK 4m. Based on its operational model in Denmark, however, we have created a
scenario analysis with an assumed 8% franchise fee to account for revenue.
Base, bear and bull case: road to ~1m customers We have assumed an 8% franchise fee for the company, and assumed that its
current share issue programme will be sufficient to expand into the desired 15
markets. We therefore assume that GreenMobility will reach 15 cities, which we
believe equates to ~3,000 cars (~200 cars in each city on average). We are
uncertain about the adoption levels, and have illustrated a low and high adoption
case below.

Cost structure ~ flexible in a franchise structure Based on historical rates, we estimate ~DKK 44,000 of costs per car annually in
auto operations. We estimate sales expenses to increase by 13% a year. We
expect local costs to maintain at 2% of revenue. For administration expenses, we
also expect more outsourcing to local offices, and optimisation from 24% in 2018 to
18% of sales in 2021e.

For employee costs, we expect the company to expand its existing workforce
employees to 85 people (from 81 in 2017). We estimate that GreenMobility’s
workforce will increase by 5% a year, and that total salary inflation will increase by
5% annually. This leads to a 10% increase in total employee expenses by 2021e.

We estimate GreenMobility to
maintain capex levels of ~5-6%.
These levels will increase due to
upgrades of its IT systems and
further auto operations as a
result of opening franchise
operations in more countries.
GreenMobility will take a
franchise fee from its partners
and will thus have a flexible
capital structure. Corresponding
sales will therefore have a lower
asset base corresponding to
lower risk.
Positive cash flow is not
expected with the current setup
for the projected years to come
due to the company’s excessive
growth strategy.

Valuation
Our fundamental valuation uses a DCF methodology and a multiple peer analysis.
Our extensive market analysis and consideration of capital structure is the
baseline of the assumptions put forward in our DCF and multiple analysis. Our
assumptions include a beta of 1.8 with an extra risk factor of 2.5%, a WACC of
11.3% with LT sales growth, and EBITA margins of 30% and 10%, respectively.
Based on our assumptions and forecast model, we arrive at a DCF valuation and
multiple analysis result of DKK 120 per share.
M&A transaction multiple Recent years have seen deals involving players from many parts of the ecosystem,
including car sharing operators, car rental companies, car sharing telematics
specialists, equity investment companies and telematics technology providers.
Market participants on the car rental markets invest in the car sharing industry, and
many see significant synergies between traditional car rental and the emerging
short-term rentals through car sharing.

Numerous mergers and acquisitions have taken place in the car sharing telematics
value chain. We find that the average transaction size is DKK 2.3bn, with an
average fleet size of 3,475 cars. This implies a median transaction value per fleet of
0.4x. We have chosen to weigh our total valuation by 7.5%, reflecting the price
factor and likelihood that GreenMobility could be acquired.

Valuation summary In our peer valuation, we include traditional car companies (Tesla, VW; BMW and
Daimler), rental car companies (Hertz and Avis) and also a car mobility company,
Lyft, which was recently (28 March 28 2019) became a public company and trades
at 4x EV/EBITDA ’19. When consolidating these results with our M&A valuations we
derive a price of DKK 103 per share. We weight this result with our DCF that has a
WACC of 11.3% and LT sales growth of 30% and EBITA of 10%. This equates to a
12-month target price of DKK 120.
Below we show the valuation sensitivity. We also highlight EBITA margin of 50%.
The reason is that if the franchise model goes above expectations and the company
receives 8% due to accelerated of growth, then the revenue has a limited cost-base
and would increase GreenMobility’s earnings exponentially.

Risks
We see three fundamental risks for the GreenMobility case, and believe that the
majority of other risks are also reflected in these circumstances. Fundamentally,
the mobility market is growing at substantial rates with many market participants
including the car companies VW, BMW and Daimler. The market is still immature,
so GreenMobility can grow well while the market is expanding and user adoption
is increasing. However, as a small company, liquidity is crucial to GreenMobility’s
growth strategy. Other market participants will benefit more in a consolidating
market.
Small fish in a big pond GreenMobility has less than a 3% market share in Europe, in terms of fleet size.
The merger between Car2go and DriveNow is financed by Daimler and BMW, which
own 66% of the total fleets in Europe. With a presence in more than 15 cities, these
two companies are expanding their reach and gaining user traction.
GreenMobility is attempting to enter markets as the second or third company,
arriving in a more mature market. In Berlin, a consolidated platform between the
different providers has already been created. In the medium term, this may also
happen in other markets. In the long term, however, we believe there will be a
consolidation of providers. If GreenMobility does not expand fast enough, it will not
gain its desired ~450,000-1.4m customer traction by 2021e (we estimate 635,000).
Franchise agreements The franchise model is based on 10-15 independent agreements with various
franchisors. These contracts typically last 2-3 years. Franchisees are investing in a
business model, but also in a reputation. Likewise, franchisors are depending on the
franchisee to maintain that reputation. When one party does something that
damages this reputation, both parties can suffer.
Labour violations have proven to be an especially complicated issue for franchisees.
When a franchisee is accused of violating labour laws, the franchisor might be held
responsible.
User traction GreenMobility’s main target group is 20-30 year-old millennials. This group is more
likely to have debt, live in the city and not own a car. The group is typically quite
accepting and open to new technological endeavours. This is a group in which it is
difficult to establish brand loyalty, which is the main concept behind GreenMobility’s
franchise model.
Regulatory changes – liquidity need The removal of tax and parking incentives for electric cars, in addition to road taxes
and other traffic related fees, could impact the operating business of GreenMobility.
The company is dependent on a favourable regulatory environment during its rollout
phase.
GreenMobility has several parking license agreements with municipalities around
Copenhagen. If those were removed, liquidity would be strained. According to our
current estimates, we believe that the company must raise additional capital to fund
its liquidity needs and realise its 2021 objectives.

Shareholder structure
On 25 March, GreenMobility raised DKK 35m in a capital share issue where it
issued 368,421 new shares. As a result, the free float of the share has
increased from 28.7% to 43%. The shares of the company’s current CEO are
owned through the company Hico Group; these shares were diluted from
67.5% to 54.8%. In addition, the significant shareholder, Jørn P. Jensen’s
(CFO of Dyson and fmr. CFO of Carlsberg) holdings were diluted to 3.2% from
3.75%. Hico Group or Jørn P. Jensen did not subscribe to additional shares.

Stock ratings distribution ABG Sundal Collier Ratings and Investment Banking by 05/05/2019
Analyst stock ratings definitions BUY = We expect this stock’s total return to exceed the market’s expected total return by 5% or more over the next six months. HOLD = We expect this stock’s total return to be in line with the market’s expected total return within a range of 4% over the next six months. SELL = We expect this stock’s total return to underperform the market’s expected total return by 5% or more over the next six months .
Analyst valuation methods When setting the individual ratings, ABG Sundal Collier assumes that a normal total absolute return (including dividends) for the market is 8% per annum, or 4% on a 6-month basis. Therefore, when we rate a stock a buy, we expect an absolute return of 9% or better over six months. We have more rigorous guidelines for trading buys and trading sells on small cap stocks, defined as having a market capitalisation below USD
1.5 billion. For trading buys on small cap stocks, we must identify a potential absolute return of 15% or more over the next six weeks. This more rigorous guideline reflects the fact that the low trading volume for small cap stocks inhibits the ability to trade them within a narrow price band.
ABG Sundal Collier analysts publish price targets for the stocks they cover. These price targets rely on various valuation methods. One of the most frequently used methods is the valuation of a company by calculation of that company’s discounted cash flow (DCF). Another valuation method is the analysis of a company’s return on capital employed relative to its cost of capital. Finally, the analysts may analyse various
valuation multiples (e.g. the P/E multiples and the EV/EBITDA multiples) relative to global industry peers. In special cases, particularly for property companies and investment companies, the ratio of price to net asset value is considered. Price targets are changed when earnings and cash flow forecasts are changed. They may also be changed when the underlying value of a company’s assets changes (in the cases of
investment companies, property companies or insurance companies) or when factors impacting the required rate of return change.
