Royal Unibrew (Buy, TP: DKK600.00) - Soft volumes and cost outlook

Royal Unibrew reported a soft Q3 across the board, with organic volumes and revenue below our forecasts and consensus. Weather and the weaker consumer were the main reasons for the miss in the key Northern European market, while in Western Europe it was tough comparables and capacity constraints in International markets. 2024 comments were more bearish, presenting downside to us and consensus. We reiterate our BUY, but have cut our target price to DKK600 (650).
