Feng Zhang has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that indicate a positive outlook for JDE Peet’s NV. The company has shown strong performance by surpassing expectations for the fiscal year 2024, which has led to its stock outperforming the market index by 7%. This positive momentum is further supported by the new CEO’s strategic initiatives, which align with successful strategies employed by other major consumer goods companies such as Nestle and Unilever.
Additionally, while the price target has been adjusted to €25 to account for moderate margin growth, the focus on reinvesting in brand development is seen as a long-term positive. The company’s ability to adjust pricing and enhance profitability, coupled with favorable market conditions for green coffee, supports the Buy rating, suggesting that JDE Peet’s NV is well-positioned for future growth.
