After a challenging H1 for champagne, the industry expects volumes to stabilise in H2 ahead of a recovery in 2025. We lower our estimates for the current year for all champagne groups. In these conditions, we prefer Laurent-Perrier, the sector best-in-class which has many times proven its resilience in champagne market slumps, and upgrade our rating to Outperform vs Neutral. We downgrade Lanson-BCC to Neutral and remain at Neutral on Vranken Pommery given their more fragile profiles. - ...
