GN Group (Buy, TP: DKK215.00) - Hearing beat, but Audio miss

Q2 group revenue of DKK4,394m and adj. EBITA of DKK404m missed our forecasts, driven by GN Audio. The 2023 guidance for GN Hearing was raised to organic growth of 9–13% and was unchanged for a 14–16% adj. EBITA margin, while the guidance for GN Audio was cut to organic growth of -10% to -4% and an adj. EBITA margin of 10–12%. We reiterate our BUY but have cut our target price to DKK215 (230).
