60%+ returns in 2025: Here’s how AI-powered stock investing has changed the game
Investing.com - Barclays upgraded Givaudan SA (SIX:GIVN) (OTC:GVDNY) from Equalweight to Overweight on Thursday, setting a price target of CHF3,900.00.
The upgrade reflects Barclays’ positive view on Givaudan’s structural growth outlook, which is strengthened by the company’s increased focus on local and regional customers and its exposure to high-growth markets.
Barclays highlighted a multi-year natural colors reformulation opportunity in North America as another growth driver for the Swiss flavor and fragrance manufacturer.
While Barclays expects Fine Fragrance growth to normalize in 2026, the firm believes market concerns about a sharp slowdown in this segment are exaggerated.
The research firm noted that Givaudan’s profitability is positioned to benefit from Fine Fragrance mix, supporting raised margin targets, while a recent valuation de-rating creates an attractive entry point for what Barclays considers "a best-in-class Ingredients franchise."
