What the Analysts think about Barr
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Barr stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Barr stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Berenberg said like-for-like volumes fell 2%–3% in the first half and IRN-BRU was flat, making the growth outlook less certain despite favourable summer conditions. This suggests recent sales growth may not yet reflect strong underlying volume demand. (Investing.com)
Profit growth lagged sales growth: adjusted profit before tax rose 2.6% and adjusted EPS just 0.4% against revenue growth of 8.5%. Higher interest and input costs, acquisition dilution and about £40 million of planned annual capital spending could keep pressure on earnings and returns. (A.G. Barr, Investing.com)
