A challenging environment

Following an exceptionally strong FY15, H1 16 brought a perfect storm of a weak macroeconomic backdrop in many end-markets, sterling devaluation, a weak tomato campaign and higher fruit and pulse costs. Management has therefore updated its rolling three-year plan for the more challenging environment and revised down estimates. Our DCF-derived fair value moves to €10.91/share (from €15.84) given the downgrades to estimates.
