-- 加拿大皇家银行资本市场（RBC Capital Markets）周一发布的一份报告指出，雅诗兰黛（Estee Lauder，股票代码：EL）的复苏势头仍在持续，但中东冲突带来的不利影响仍可能对第四财季业绩造成压力。 雅诗兰黛公布的第三财季调整后每股收益为0.91美元，高于去年同期的0.65美元，净销售额从35.5亿美元增至37.1亿美元。该公司还将2026财年调整后每股收益预期从之前的2.05美元至2.25美元上调至2.35美元至2.45美元。 该投资公司表示，中东冲突造成的业务中断预计将对雅诗兰黛2026财年每股收益产生0.07美元的负面影响，并对第四财季每股收益产生0.06美元的稀释性影响。加拿大皇家银行指出，雅诗兰黛更新后的预期“假设”中东局势在5月之后不会恶化，并维持当前的市场状况。 加拿大皇家银行补充道，该指引仍然“合理”，并有助于雅诗兰黛实现其目标。 加拿大皇家银行资本市场维持对雅诗兰黛的“跑赢大盘”评级，目标价为111美元。
