Axfood (Hold, TP: SEK213.00) - Solid report, but no change in view
We reiterate our HOLD and have raised our target price to SEK213 (200) following our EBIT increases for 2020e and 2021e in light of the Q3 EBIT beat. However, as the stock is trading at a 2021e P/E of 24.5x, we still see limited scope for a higher multiple given the current outlook.AxFood AB is a food retail company.
