Bernstein maintains Kering at 'Market Perform' - Target 180 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyst) - US analyst Bernstein Research has maintained a "Market-Perform" rating on Kering with a price target of €180. Kering's self-help recovery story is likely to be similarly volatile as other luxury goods companies over the past ten years, Luca Solca wrote in an assessment released Monday. Kering still needs to demonstrate tangible progress after its stock recovered 50 percent from recent lows. However, given the new, strong CEO Luca De Meo and the new Gucci Creative Director Demna Gvasalia, he is inclined to a more optimistic assessment./gl/niw

Bernstein maintains Kering at 'Market Perform' - Target 180 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyser) - US analyst firm Bernstein Research has maintained its rating for Kering at "Market-Perform" with a price target of €180.

However, individual developments differed. L'Oreal and Estée Lauder continued to perform well, while Procter & Gamble Beauty and Proya also grew, and Unilever and LVMH were under pressure./mis/tih

Berenberg lowers target for Kering to 160 euros - 'Hold'
HAMBURG (dpa-AFX Analyst) - Private bank Berenberg has lowered its price target for Kering from €165 to €160 and maintained its "Hold" rating. In a study released Monday, analyst Nick Anderson observes a rotation among investors in the European luxury goods sector from low-beta stocks to high-beta stocks, which are consequently subject to greater volatility. Kering's share price rose in July, along with those of Burberry and Swatch, while all others fell. He considers this dangerous, partly due to the deteriorating macroeconomic outlook. Kering names Anderson, along with Swatch, one of its "least favorite stocks."/rob/ck/mis

JPMorgan maintains Kering's 'Underweight' rating - target 145 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyst) - US bank JPMorgan has maintained its "Underweight" rating on Kering with a price target of €145. The quarterly figures from the European luxury goods industry so far have been mixed, wrote Chiara Battistini in an industry commentary released on Monday. Despite this and the varied price reactions, there were few surprises in the fundamental data. Brunello Cucinelli, Burberry, and Richemont largely performed as expected. Company-specific factors continued to play a greater role than economic and industry trends. Among the companies yet to report, Hermes could benefit from the trend toward continued strong domestic demand. However, expectations here already reflected a better performance. The expert remains just as cautious about LVMH, with regard to the fragrances and leather goods business, which is dependent on Asian tourists, as she is about Kering./gl/bek

Bernstein maintains Kering at 'Market Perform' - Target 170 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyst) - US analyst firm Bernstein Research has maintained a "Market Perform" rating on Kering with a price target of €170. Spending growth for high-end luxury goods has remained robust despite weakening demand in the broader sector, but is beginning to show signs of slowing due to macroeconomic uncertainties, wrote Luca Solca. In his industry assessment, published Wednesday, he referred to data collected by cooperation partner Agility Research & Strategy for the period from March 17 to April 25 – i.e., before and after the market shock caused by the introduction of new US tariffs in early April, which were later partially suspended. Solca now no longer expects an organic sales decline for 2025, but rather stagnation of revenues at the previous year's level.

NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyser) - The US bank JPMorgan has left its rating for Kering at "Underweight" with a price target of 150 euros following media reports that Renault CEO Luca de Meo is moving to Kering.

Bernstein maintains Kering at 'Market Perform' - Target 170 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyser) - US analyst Bernstein Research has maintained a "Market-Perform" rating on Kering with a price target of €170. The luxury goods group needs change, wrote Luca Solca, citing media reports that outgoing Renault CEO Luca De Meo will be joining Kering. In the study, published Monday, he pointed to Kering's very weak share price, which he attributes primarily to declining revenues at its core brand, Gucci. Solca expects François-Henri Pinault, who currently holds the position of Chairman and CEO, to remain Chairman. If De Meo becomes the new CEO, this would be positive, but he would face significant challenges. However, prompt information about De Meo's plans and the implementation plan is crucial./rob/ck/tih

LONDON (dpa-AFX Analyst) - British investment bank Barclays has lowered its price target for Kering from €192 to €145 and maintained its rating at "Underweight." Analyst Carole Madjo fears that the earnings recovery in the European luxury goods sector will be delayed in the adverse environment.

Deutsche Bank lowers Kering to 'Hold' and target to 205 euros
FRANKFURT (dpa-AFX Analyst) - Deutsche Bank Research has downgraded Kering from "Buy" to "Hold" and lowered its price target from €340 to €205. It is now unclear whether the third quarter of 2024 truly marked the low point in demand for luxury goods, wrote analyst Adam Cochrane in a study on the European luxury industry published Wednesday. The recovery in the fourth quarter appears to have been merely an anomaly and not the beginning of an uptrend. While he does not see the direct impact of tariffs as a major headwind, he does see weaker global equity markets and general economic uncertainty as a major headwind. Regarding Kering, he wrote that his positive assessment came too early. The appointment of Demna Gvasalia as creative director was less prominent than expected. Overall, a revenue recovery by 2026 is now rather unlikely for several reasons./ck/la

This likely reflects investors' surprise over the appointment of Demna Gvasalia as the new chief designer at the core brand Gucci. This is an unexpected turn of events./tih/mis

Bernstein maintains Kering at 'Market Perform' - Target 250 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyst) - US analyst firm Bernstein Research has maintained its rating for Kering at "Market-Perform" with a price target of €250. Data from Global Blue, which handles the refund of tourism purchasing tax, showed some weakening in demand in February, but this was mainly due to calendar effects, analyst Luca Solca wrote in a study released Monday. However, on a two-year basis, the recovery remains on track, as growth in Europe offsets the slower recovery in the Asia-Pacific region./ck/gl

Bernstein maintains Kering at 'Market Perform' - Target 250 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyst) - US analyst firm Bernstein Research has maintained its rating for Kering at "Market-Perform" with a price target of €250. The major luxury brands would have to acquire large properties to establish branches in New York, wrote analyst Luca Solca in his industry commentary published Tuesday. According to a real estate expert surveyed, rents for the insufficient commercial space are likely to rise sharply. LVMH is attempting to force its competitors into competition on this issue, at the expense of their significantly lower balance sheet options./bek/ag

Deutsche Bank Research raises target for Kering - 'Buy'
FRANKFURT (dpa-AFX Analyst) - Deutsche Bank Research raised its price target for Kering from €320 to €340 and maintained its "Buy" rating. The luxury goods group has had a tough year, wrote analyst Adam Cochrane in an assessment released Thursday. While things are unlikely to be as bad in 2025, Kering nevertheless needs a significant business recovery in the second half of the year to keep its operating result (EBIT) stable. However, this assumption is ambitious – many investors fear further declining consensus estimates over the course of the year.

The market is overestimating the impact of US import tariffs, while underestimating headwinds in China. Against this backdrop, a defensive equity strategy is crucial. Anderson favors stocks of companies that are expanding market share, such as Brunello Cucinelli, Hermes, and LVMH. He lowered his estimates for Kering, stating that the outlook is uncertain. The Gucci brand's turnaround is the key factor in the Kering story, but without clear evidence, it's hard to rely on it./ajx/zb

Goldman maintains Kering's 'Sell' rating - target 205 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyst) - US investment bank Goldman Sachs has maintained its rating for Kering at "Sell" and set a price target of €205. In her industry outlook published Friday, analyst Louise Singlehurst expects Europe's luxury goods manufacturers to achieve average sales growth of 3 percent in 2025, adjusted for currency effects – half the long-term average. Given the share price decline since the beginning of the year, support from the valuation side is increasing. With consensus estimates already pointing to growth in Western markets, the decisive factor remains the course of a recovery in China. However, developments at individual companies are likely to diverge. Singlehurst favors LVMH, Moncler, and Prada due to their potential for market share gains and their attractive valuations – she upgraded the latter two to "Buy." Due to the industry's low growth, it is still too early to bet on turnaround stories like Kering./gl/ag

Bernstein maintains Kering at 'Market-Perform' - Target 297 euros
NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyst) - US analyst firm Bernstein Research has maintained its rating for Kering at "Market-Perform" with a price target of €297. Investors have become accustomed to the assumption that LVMH is less vulnerable to fashion cycles than most other players in the luxury segment, analyst Luca Solca wrote in a study released Thursday. This is largely correct and evident in the organic growth of the fashion and leather goods division compared to brands like Gucci or Prada. However, a comparison with Hermes is the better approach here, as it shows that LVMH is not entirely immune to such cycles./tih/gl
