Almirall: After the storm we change our recommendation to Hold (from Sell)

  • Management reshuffled
  • Withdraws two products from its US pipeline
  • Only moderate impact on our forecasts
  • Our new target price is €11.00
  • Recommendation change to Hold, from Sell

Since we downgraded Almirall to Sell (20th July 2017), the stock has shed –3.5% (–34% since the profit warning) and in the last month has been a neutral performer. Our recommendation changes to Hold (from Sell). In spite of a 28% upside, we prefer to be cautious and stay in the sidelines until the news flow reflects the turnaround in the US and that the 2017 guidance can be achieved.
