Andreas Heine has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors related to EMS-CHEMIE HOLDING AG’s recent financial performance and market conditions. The company reported a modest increase in EBIT for the fiscal year 2024, which aligns with expectations but indicates that growth may not be substantial. The forecast for fiscal year 2025 suggests only a slight EBIT increase, under 10%, while facing potential sales declines due to foreign exchange challenges.
Despite some positive developments, such as improved EBIT margins and success in marketing initiatives in the US and China, the overall growth is restrained by a weak European automotive market. EMS-CHEMIE HOLDING AG’s dividend increase and stable volume deliveries provide some positive outlook, but the anticipated earnings momentum is likely to be concentrated towards the later part of fiscal year 2025. These mixed indicators support a Hold rating as the stock presents a balanced risk-reward profile at its current valuation.
According to TipRanks, Heine is a 3-star analyst with an average return of 1.5% and a 48.24% success rate.
In another report released on January 28, Kepler Capital also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a CHF685.00 price target.
