Demant (Buy, TP: DKK240.00) - Focus on 2023 guidance
We believe focus with the H2 results will be on the 2023 guidance; we expect Demant to guide for organic growth of 1–5% YOY (we forecast 4.1%, consensus 3.6%) and EBIT of DKK3,400m–3,700m (we forecast DKK3,611m, consensus DKK3,558m). We expect continued weak markets in 2023 but see less pressure on costs from freight rates. We reiterate our BUY but have cut our target price to DKK240 (260).William Demant Holding is a holding company.
