Elior Group: Shares Advance, Deutsche Bank Lowers Price Target
On Wednesday's close, Elior Group's stock showed an increase of 1.29%, reaching 2.83 euros. The collective catering specialist's stock is moving in an environment marked by adjustments in recommendations from several analysts. Over the year, the performance remains positive with an increase of 8.18%.
In mid-December, Deutsche Bank made a significant adjustment in its position on Elior Group. The German institution downgraded its recommendation from 'buy' to 'hold', while reducing its price target from 4.00 euros to 3.20 euros. This new target still remains 13% above the current stock level. Meanwhile, AlphaValue/Baader Europe maintains a favorable stance with a buy recommendation, although the bank slightly adjusted its target price from 3.52 euros to 3.36 euros at the beginning of December. This target offers a potential appreciation of about 19% compared to the closing price this Wednesday.
