Demant (Hold, TP: DKK335.00) - Strong earnings indications in Q1

Demant estimates the global hearing aid market enjoyed c6% unit growth in Q1 driven by France and the US. With high exposure to France, Demant’s Hearing Healthcare has had high-double-digit organic growth YTD and in the low double-digits versus 2019. Organic revenue growth and EBIT guidance were lifted, and 2021e should be less back-end-loaded than our prior forecast, driven by strong Q1 profitability. We reiterate our HOLD with a new DKK335 (320) target price.
