Henrik Paganetty has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, primarily driven by DO & CO Aktiengesellschaft’s strong financial performance in the second quarter of the 2025/26 fiscal year. The company reported sales of €625 million, marking an 8% year-over-year increase, which slightly surpassed both the firm’s estimates and market consensus. This growth was attributed to heightened demand across all divisions, particularly in the Airline Catering and The Restaurant, Lounges & Hotels segments.
Moreover, the company’s EBIT margin improved to 8.7%, up from 8.1% in the previous year, largely due to better kitchen utilization. The Airline Catering segment saw a significant 10% growth, while The Restaurant, Lounges & Hotels segment increased by 14%. Additionally, the company demonstrated improved financial leverage, with a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 0.4, down from 0.72 the previous year. These factors collectively underpin Henrik Paganetty’s positive outlook and Buy rating for the stock.
