Royal Unibrew (Buy, TP: DKK720.00) - Slow start to the year
Royal Unibrew’s Q1 results missed our forecasts on the top and bottom lines, but the miss was mainly driven by temporary political upheaval in some African countries. Performance in the core regions was slightly better than we expected, with pricing largely in line with forecasts across all markets. With Q1 a small quarter (c10% of 2023e EBIT), the 2023 guidance was maintained. We reiterate our BUY and DKK720 target price.Royal Unibrew is a holding company based in Denmark.
