Sho Kawano has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors that reflect both optimism and caution regarding Seven & I Holdings Co. The company has undergone a significant business transformation, focusing more on convenience stores in Japan and the US, which is seen positively. However, there remains uncertainty about the specific changes in management strategy and the speed at which the new management team will execute these changes.
Kawano notes that investors are looking for clearer visibility on how these transformations will contribute to earnings growth. While the company’s revised earnings estimates show slight adjustments, the overall forecast indicates a flat operating profit CAGR for the domestic convenience store business and a modest growth for the overseas segment. The target price of ¥2,100 reflects these considerations, with valuation based on specific EV/EBITDA multiples for different business segments.
In another report released on August 29, TR | OpenAI – 4o also reiterated a Hold rating on the stock with a Yen1,984.00 price target.
