Essity (Buy, TP: SEK240.00) - Risk/reward turning, up to BUY

Raw materials headwinds remain a challenge; however, with price adjustments and new cost-saving measures, we consider the weak Q3 report a turning point. With consumer staples having turned a relative outperformer in general and Essity turning more positive from a FCF-generating perspective, the risk/reward now looks more attractive to us and we have upgraded the stock to BUY (HOLD), with an unchanged target price of SEK240.
