Swedish Match (Hold, TP: SEK420.00) - New pouches working nicely
We expect Q2 earnings growth of near 10% YOY driven by price hikes in Scandinavian snus and further improved international losses (snus and nicotine pouches). The growth case has improved somewhat from e.g. the ongoing Zyn expansion in the US. To reflect this and a slight increase to our estimates, we have raised our target price to SEK420 (375), but keep our HOLD. Q2 numbers are due 19 July at 08:15 CET.Swedish Match develops, manufactures, markets, and sells snus and snuff, other tobacco products (cigars and chewing tobacco), and lights (matches and lighters). Snus and snuff are smokeless tobacco products that are produced and sold primarily in Sweden, Norway and the U.S. Other tobacco products represent cigars and chewing tobacco manufactured and sold on the U.S. market. Lights include manufacturing and distribution of matches and lighters. Other operations are primarily the distribution of tobacco products on the Swedish market. Primary brands include General snus, Longhorn moist snuff, White Owl cigars, Red Man chewing tobacco, Fiat Lux matches, and Cricket lighters.
