Stora Enso (Buy, TP: EUR14.00) - Eventful 2024e with catalysts
Although we expected clearer confirmation of an improvement in the harsh market conditions, we believe Stora Enso has passed the worst. Looking ahead, the company is committed to delivering on cost-cutting and divesting its Beihai site (China), which we believe could reveal hidden value and improve profitability. With conviction in the value story as well as ample self-help potential, we reiterate our BUY and EUR14 target price.Stora Enso is a provider of renewable solutions in packaging, biomaterials, wooden constructions and paper on global markets.
