We reiterate our HOLD rating and €32 target price on Ahold Delhaize as we continue to carry below consensus estimates for FY24/25F due to required price investments in the United States to reignite volume growth for some store formats. We expect this to allow Ahold Delhaize to meet its HSD Core EPS CAGR target over 2024-28F, with INGF standing c.5% above Visible Alpha consensus on Core EPS 2028F. In the short term, however, we see limited catalysts for the group, except for a potential corporate...
>Q3 2024 EBIT 2% ahead of consensus, behind strong recovery in Europe - Ahold Delhaize’s Q3 2024 underlying EBIT of € 855m came in 2% ahead of consensus and slightly higher than our forecast. The results were in line with consensus for the US, and materially better than expected for the European operations. Comparable growth came in stronger than expected for both regions. Management added that the European operations reported their fourth consecutive quarter of volum...
Ahold Delhaize's share price is up c. 6% today, driven by the solid 3Q24 results, reporting an underlying EBIT of € 855m (css: € 834m, kbcse: € 856m). The better than expected results were largely driven by good margin improvements in Europe, with the 3.9% margin now being very close to AD's ambition of at least 4%. Note that besides the solid results, the share price performance today is also partially driven by the strengthening of the USD (c. 61% US Sales). Below we summarize the key highligh...
Our baseline scenario materialised last night: Donald Trump seems to be on course to win the US presidential election, and the choice of the electorate is unlikely to be challenged. He could end up with a majority in both houses of Congress. US equities will be the first to benefit from this development. In European equities, the biggest winners will be Energy, Media, Metals, Construction & Materials, Financial Services and Insurance. More at risk, however, are the Utilities, Spirits,...
Notre scénario central s’est concrétisé dans la nuit : Donald Trump remporte la présidentielle américaine, et le choix des électeurs ne devrait pas être contesté. Il pourrait disposer d’une majorité dans les deux assemblées. Les actions américaines en seront les premières bénéficiaires. Sur les actions européennes, les secteurs les plus gagnants seront l’Energie, les Médias, les Métaux, Construction & Materials, Financial Services, Insurance. Sont en revanche plus à risque Utilities, ...

With the recall behind us we believe its time to look forward. Ignoring the noise from the recall over the last years, we believe Philips performance was good. Moreover the company’s positioning in IGT, Monitoring, Cardio Ultrasound and MRI has never been better. There is a credible self-help plan to lift Adj EBITA by 70% over the coming 5 years which should position margins and returns at industry average. The discount to the sector is no longer warranted. We upgrade to outperform. - ...
