RBCによると、プリモ・ブランズの第1四半期決算は、サービス中断とコスト上昇の逆風により圧迫される見込み。

By

-- RBCキャピタル・マーケッツは火曜日に電子メールで送付したレポートの中で、プリモ・ブランズ(PRMB)は、冬の嵐による長期にわたるサービス中断と中東紛争に関連した原材料費の高騰により、第1四半期に業績への圧力を受けると予想されると述べた。 同社は、第1四半期は年間で最も業績が低迷する四半期となる可能性が高く、冬の嵐による配送損失や回収不能な売上によってさらに影響を受ける可能性があると指摘した。 RBCによると、小売事業の動向は好調で、スキャナーデータでは売上高が6%増加している。また、同社は中核事業であるケースパック事業以外の小売販売量の約15%について価格改定を行っているという。 プリモ・ブランズは、樹脂、ガラス、アルミニウム、ディーゼル燃料など、石油関連コストにも依然として非常に敏感であるが、2026年までのヘッジ契約を相当程度締結しており、価格設定や燃料サーチャージなどの手段も講じているとレポートは述べている。 プリモ・ブランズは木曜日に第1四半期の決算を発表する予定だ。 RBCはプリモ・ブランズに対する投資判断を「アウトパフォーム」に据え置き、目標株価を28ドルに維持した。

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Opinion On Shares Of Posco Holdings

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our target price to USD94 from USD70, valuing POSCO at 0.66x 2026 P/BV, above its three-year mean of 0.52x. Our neutral view reflects: (i) recovering steel fundamentals supported by China's 2025 crude steel output declining 4.4% Y/Y and South Korea's anti-dumping duties on Chinese steel, which provides a pricing moat for Posco; and (ii) lithium market recovery with prices surging 49% YTD through April, supporting POSCO's battery materials segment which narrowed Q1 2026 losses significantly. POSCO's Australian and Argentine lithium acquisitions bolster its battery materials growth strategy. Additionally, the new Mid-term Shareholder Return Policy (2026-2028) targeting a 35%-40% payout ratio demonstrates commitment to shareholder value. However, risks include an aggressive 61% capex increase to KRW11.3 trillion in 2026, execution challenges on international projects, and persistent margin pressures. We adjust our 2026 EPS estimate to KRW6,379 from KRW5,932 and 2027 to KRW8,036 from KRW7,820.
