Bunzl (BNZL.L): following underperformance 3 October 2025 | 3:35AM BST We upgrade the underperformance seen YTD (shares down c.30%), which we think reflects the profit warning earlier this year when the company lowered expectations for 2025 on growth and margins. While we acknowledge some market concerns about the likelihood of further corrections to growth/ profits, we believe the in-line 1H results and the resumption of the share buyback program have likely reduced the risks to numbers and leverage near term and see the risk/reward as more balanced as a result. Our new 12- month price target is 2,510p, implying c.5% upside.
