AB InBev Conference call feedback

Below are the highlights from the conference call. We remind that 3Q adj EBITDA increased by 4.1% which was slightly better than our and consensus forecasts while ABI maintained its FY guidance of 4-8% EBITDA growth. The outlook on the US market remains uncertain although there are some green shoots on market shares. Overall, we still appreciate ABI for its leadership positions in the global beer market, high intrinsic profitability and LT growth prospects in its emerging markets businesses. Deleveraging is on track and with valuation multiples attractive, we maintain our BUY rating and € 75 TP.
