Diageo (DGE LN, HOLD, T/P 2700p) - Walking Briskly in The Far East – Asia Pacific Update

Diageo’s (DGE LN, HOLD, T/P 2700p) brunchtime conference call with Sam Fischer, President of Diageo Greater China and Asia yesterday was interesting. The region – Diageo’s third largest at 20% of net revenue – should deliver the fastest pace of organic growth for the group in the next 2 years. The call confirmed our expectations of brisk sales growth and pointed further margin expansion for the region. We roll over our price target from calendar 2017 2018 and increased it from 2250p to 2700p.
