Ontex US key to the growth but limited visibility – target price lowered
Ontex is a mix of two tales, ie a mature European business which is a private label market leader in most of its activities whilst its US activities have growth potential on the back of its challenger status and much lower private label penetration. A weak start of the year, intensified competition from A-label brands and limited visibility on the mid term upside from the US business prompt us to become a bit more cautious and lower our target price from € 12 to € 10. Given the significant upside, we maintain a BUY rating.Ontex Group NV is a Belgium-based company, which operates in the manufacturing sector of industry.
