-- 賈登(Jarden)週三在一份報告中指出,科利耳(Cochlear,ASX:COH)下調2026財年盈利預期“遠超預期”,鑑於該公司近期未能提供可靠的預測,其市盈率也面臨風險。 該公司將2026財年基本淨利潤預期下調至2.9億澳元至3.3億澳元之間,並表示自1月份以來,其在已開發市場的人工耳蝸銷售狀況弱於預期。 賈登表示:“問題似乎主要出在人工耳蝸業務,發達市場疲軟、中東地區動盪、西班牙和意大利的罷工影響了手術能力,以及中國醫保報銷減少。” 這家股票研究公司表示,下調獲利預期與外匯波動關係不大,因為這一不利因素似乎已略有改善。該公司還補充說,下調預期包含了多項額外成本,例如中東地區的壞帳和成本重組。 此外,Jarden表示,Nexa植入體上市時並未推出新功能,而Cochlear預期其產品將獲得溢價,這加劇了持續的競爭壓力。通路調查顯示,溢價並未持續,尤其是在美國,因為該設備的報銷政策沒有調整。 Jarden維持對Cochlear的「中性」評級,目標股價為224澳元。 該公司股價在周三的交易中下跌超過39%。
