Lindt & Sprüngli

The Lindt & Sprüngli share is going through a pronounced weakness phase: since the 2025 all-time high it has lost around 35% and is currently trading near a five-year low. Reasons include higher production costs due to more expensive raw cocoa and a growth strategy based on price increases that delivered only 4.3% sales growth in the first half of 2026, with price increases of 11.8% offsetting a 7.5% decline in volume. Analysts have become more skeptical; Vontobel remains confident enough to keep a buy recommendation but has lowered its price targets. The expected P/E for 2027 of 28 is below the long-term average of 35, making the stock more interesting for some investors. » Más en handelsblatt.com

The Lindt & Sprüngli registered share has fallen markedly over the past twelve months and is trading well below its all‑time high, currently about CHF 95,000 lower. The reasons are higher production costs following a raw cocoa shortage and a pricing policy that, while supporting revenue through price increases, is reducing sales volume. Analysts have cut price targets and see growth risks for 2027, while the reduced P/E ratio of around 28 has prompted some investors to consider buying in. » Más en handelsblatt.com

Lindt & Sprüngli is making targeted price corrections on certain products in several European core markets after volumes collapsed following a 7.5% price increase. The company is also relying on smaller packaging sizes, increased marketing and closer cooperation with retailers to stabilise volumes by the end of 2026. Despite the drop in volumes, revenue and EBIT rose in the first half thanks to groupwide price increases of 11.8%. » Más en kurier.at
