Vitrolife (Buy, TP: SEK320.00) - Q2e largely in line with consensus
We are broadly in line with consensus on Q2e, estimating a slightly higher top line but lower margins, as we expect higher costs due to salary inflation from Q2. Overall, we believe the near-term outlook is strong, as the fact that China’s Year of the Dragon starts on 10 February 2024 should boost H2e sales. We reiterate our BUY but have cut our target price to SEK320 (340) on forecast revisions.Vitrolife AB is a Sweden-based company engaged in assisted reproduction services.
