Point d'inflexion en 2018, consensus bien averti - ACHAT vs NEUTRE - OC 108€ (vs 96€)

Jeudi dernier se tenait le « Capital Market Day » de Merck qui a permis selon nous, i) de rassurer le marché sur la capacité du groupe à renouer avec la croissance sur sa franchise Performance Materials post 2018 (et ceci malgré un impact EUR/USD qui devrait fortement pénaliser le groupe cette année) mais aussi (ii) de souligner l’attrait de son pipeline Pharma dont le potentiel de ventes ajusté a été confirmé à 2Mds€ dès 2022. Sur ce dernier aspect, il y a un abîme entre les attentes du marché et celles de la société. Suite à ce discours, nous sommes aujourd’hui plus agressifs dans nos attentes, ce qui nous conduit à relever de NEUTRE à ACHAT et notre OC de 96€ à 108€.
