Akzo Nobel Feedback 3Q results conference call

Below are the highlights of the 3Q25 results conference call. 3Q adjusted EBITDA dropped by 2% y/y and was in line with consensus whilst being 2% below our forecast. Akzo adjusted FY25 adj EBITDA guidance from ‘above €1.48bn' to ‘around €1.48bn' which seems in line with our and consensus forecasts. FY performance is still to be supported by € 170m targeted gross savings. Taking into account the volatile track record and low structural growth, we maintain our Hold rating and €65 TP.

Randstad Strong cost control compensates for weak top-line

Randstad has managed to maintain a solid bottom-line thanks to again very strong cost control. The top-line is still struggling, with a gross margin of 18.4% being the lowest level since 2016. Outlook isn't seeing volume improvements in October, with costs expected to increase in 4Q. We lowered our FY25-FY28 estimates, resulting in a new TP of €40.5. We reiterate our Accumulate rating.

Heineken FIRST LOOK: 3Q beer volume -4.3%, now guiding for low end of ...

3Q beer volume dropped by 4.3% which was in line with our and consensus forecasts. Heineken now guides towards the low end of the 4-8% organic operating profit (beia) growth range for FY25 which is no surprise. We still appreciate Heineken for the organic earnings growth potential in the coming year, supported by ongoing cost savings and payback from gradually increasing marketing spend, but acknowledge that the bumpier volume evolution makes the investment case a bit more difficult. We look for...

Heineken Preview: soft 3Q release expected

We lowered our forecasts for 3Q25 and the remainder of the year after signals of weak recent trading in a number of markets.
