Evolva - Everything EverSweet

Evolva’s Q3 trading statement is mixed, but overall we believe it contains more positive than negative news. The announcement that Cargill and DSM are to form a new joint venture to produce fermentation-based stevia under the EverSweet brand is not a threat to Evolva’s position and indeed could potentially accelerate growth of the market that is still in its infancy. We note that revenue guidance is somewhat less bullish than at the H1 results and we therefore trim our forecasts slightly. We also update our forecasts for FX and overall our fair value remains unchanged at CHF0.58
