As a result, high-dividend exposure is no longer a broad regional trade: the most compelling opportunities are now concentrated. However, the ...

We keep our BUY on NLB Group (NLB), upping our price target (PT) to EUR 199.9/share (from EUR 176.0), offering c.20% upside.

This should, however, be the trough and, going forward, we expect positive jaws and bottom-line expansion from mid-to-high single digits in 2026-28E. Despite the 31.5% ytd rally, we still see NLB’s valuation as attractive, bein...
