Heineken Feedback conference call

Below are the highlights from the conference call. FY24 operating profit beia grew by 8.3% organically, about 3 pp better than expected. FY25 guidance of 4-8% operating profit beia growth is no surprise and in line with our and consensus forecasts. We still appreciate Heineken for the further savings potential (€ 400m per year), whilst a number of the emerging market businesses offer either recovery (Vietnam, Nigeria) or further growth potential (Latam, Africa, India). Valuation is attractive and prompts us to reiterate our Accumulate rating.
