[ET Net News Agency, 30 October 2017] Goldman Sachs raised its target price for Health
& Happiness Intl Holdings (H&H)(01112) to HK$30 from HK$27.5, and maintained its "neutral"
rating.
The research house said H&H's 3Q operational updates are ahead of GS's expectations.
Goldman raised its 2017-19 EPS forecasts by 4-10% to reflect faster infant formula sales
from the super premium segment, strong probiotics and higher Swisse sales as they have a
good run-rate heading into the 4Q peak season.
It said the key focus for now is sales growth during the Singles' Day festival. The
company has flagged a solid pre-sales trend for now in Tmall (ranked No.1 in supplements),
but some demand has been pushed forward to September this year. Hence Goldman sees likely
20% sales growth yoy for 4Q. (KL)
