  Jefferies lowers Symrise to 'underperform' and target to 90 euros

  NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyst) - The research firm Jefferies has downgraded Symrise from "Hold" to "Underperform" and lowered its price target from €100 to €90. Concerns about demand for consumer goods remain an issue, wrote Charlie Bentley in a study published Monday. He currently expects a slight inventory buildup in the industry, which suggests a weaker second half and fourth quarter in terms of sales. While Symrise's smaller customers are supporting relative growth, the manufacturer of fragrances and flavors needs growth, especially in the second half of the year, in order not to jeopardize its sales outlook in the first year of the new CEO strategy. The analyst also takes a cautious view of Symrise's important pet food business, which has historically driven above-average growth compared to competitors.

Geoff Haire, in his assessment published Thursday, is not exactly optimistic about the chemical sector, noting that 2025 and 2026 are likely to be years of low volume growth. He incorporated the first-quarter results into his estimates. Due to the impact of tariffs, he reduced his industry earnings expectations for the coming year to a level below consensus.
