Carlsberg (Sell, TP: DKK600.00) - Guidance low quality but upgraded
Q3 organic top-line growth of -1% was worse than we and consensus expected, while underlying total volumes were also worse. Driving the miss was Western Europe; Eastern Europe beat. The 2017 guidance was lifted, but at the expense of 2018. We reiterate our SELL recommendation and DKK600 target price.Carlsberg is engaged in the production and sale of beer and other beverages.
