Demant (Hold, TP: DKK320.00) - Strong start to the year

The company said the recovery of the hearing aid market is progressing at least in line with management assumptions, driving an upgrade of both organic revenue growth and EBIT guidance. 2021e is now expected to be less back-end-loaded than previously, driven by strong profitability in Q1. We see positive consensus 2021e EPS changes on the back of the raised guidance of c5%, and see the share price up 3–5% on upbeat comments regarding the recovery.
