Nordea julkaisi päivitetyn Orthex-analyysinsä. Suositus pysyy PIDÄ-tasolla, Fair value tarkentuu 5,70 euroon (edellinen: 6,30 €).
The main upside risks for Orthex relate to falling raw material prices (plastics), which could support the company’s gross margin and earnings. A faster-than-expected profitable expansion in European countries outside the Nordics could be a positive driver. A pickup in consumer confidence and disposable income could support Orthex’s sales and profitability.
The main downside risks for Orthex relate to raw material prices, more specifically to virgin plastics prices. Orthex may not be able to raise prices to mitigate potentially higher raw material costs. The perception of plastic products could also negatively impact investors’ view on the company. Orthex’s products are mainly sold through large retailers in the Nordic region and Europe. Losing a large retailer as a customer could impact Orthex’s financials negatively.
