Essity (Buy, TP: SEK245.00) - 2019 set for better balance

With pulp prices now off their 2018 highs, Essity’s raw material headwinds are finally easing, albeit not yet fully offset by price rises looking at the Q4 results (due 07:00 CET on 31 January). However, with the 2019 outlook firming up, we see an attractive risk/reward profile. We reiterate our BUY recommendation and have increased our target price to SEK245 (240).
