Stora Enso (Hold, TP: EUR17.00) - Strong EBIT improvement in Q2e
Stora Enso’s Q2 report should show clear improvement against weak comparables, as most of the Group’s businesses enjoy strong market tailwinds. We expect the company to reiterate its 2021 EBIT guidance (expected to improve versus 2020) and issue positive comments on the short-term market outlook amid continued strong demand and pricing, both of which we find well factored into consensus. We reiterate our HOLD and EUR17 target price.Stora Enso is a provider of renewable solutions in packaging, biomaterials, wooden constructions and paper on global markets.
