Another Soft Quarter for Henkel, This Time a Top-Line Miss; Shares Now Fairly Valued

Soft sales in emerging markets caused Henkel to fall short of our expectations in the third quarter. Although management reiterated its guidance of organic growth of 2%-4% for the full year, we think it will now be difficult for the firm to achieve our 3.6% organic growth assumption, and we are tweaking our short term estimates slightly lower. The effects of the time value of money offset the negative impact of this modest revision, however, and we are reiterating our EUR 112 fair value estimate...
