Stifel Nicolaus analyst Lars Kjellberg maintained a Buy rating on SIG Group AG (SCBGF – Research Report) yesterday and set a price target of CHF20.00.
Lars Kjellberg has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including SIG Group AG’s strong performance in key regions and reassuring financial guidance. The company’s growth is notably driven by robust sales in the Americas and IMEA regions, with resilience shown in APAC and Europe despite some challenges. This regional strength is complemented by SIG’s Q1 2025 results, which exceeded market expectations with a 2% EBITDA beat and a 1% revenue beat.
Furthermore, SIG’s unchanged guidance for 2025 is a positive indicator, projecting a 3-5% top-line growth and an adjusted EBITDA margin target that is 50 basis points higher than the previous year. The company’s strategic hedging contracts have also helped reduce material costs, contributing to an improved EBITDA margin. These factors, alongside the company’s ability to maintain its guidance amidst market volatility, support Kjellberg’s Buy rating for SIG Group AG.
In another report released on April 17, Citi also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a CHF22.00 price target.
