Akzo Nobel Model updated after cautious statement on 3Q

We have lowered our adjusted operating profit forecasts for 2022 and 2023 by respectively 15% and 4% after yesterday's profit warning. We still appreciate Akzo for its leadership positions in the global paints & coatings industry, which is characterized by a fairly low capital intensity and consolidation potential. We still consider valuation to be attractive and maintain our Accumulate rating, while reminding that we have already lowered our target price yesterday from € 110 to € 90 to reflect the tougher than previously expected short term momentum.
