Givaudan (ISIN CH0010645932) was trading at EUR 3,629.50 at Lang & Schwarz on September 30, 2026 at 4:10 p.m. CEST, down 0.12 percent from the prior close of EUR 3,634.00. The immediate investor debate centers on contrasting analyst targets ahead of the fragrance and flavor maker's next results.
Analysts reset the valuation range
According to finanzen.ch on September 22, 2026, Barclays raised its Givaudan price target from CHF 3,300.00 to CHF 3,450.00, an increase of 4.55 percent, while keeping its rating at Equal Weight. Analyst Alex Sloane cited expected third-quarter operational growth of 5.6 percent and said demand was strong in Fragrance & Beauty while Taste & Wellbeing was recovering.
finanznachrichten.de reported on September 22, 2026 that Deutsche Bank Research retained its Buy rating and CHF 3,700.00 price target after a meeting with Givaudan's chief financial officer. The bank identified portfolio optimization and operating progress as levers for additional growth and higher margins.
Sales growth sets the benchmark
Givaudan's investor information lists fiscal-year 2025 group sales at CHF 7,472 million, up 5.1 percent on a like-for-like basis and 0.8 percent in Swiss francs from fiscal year 2024. The same release gives EBITDA of CHF 1,751 million, an EBITDA margin of 23.4 percent, net income of CHF 1,071 million and a dividend of CHF 72.00 per share, according to Givaudan.
The comparison matters because Barclays' 5.6 percent third-quarter growth expectation is close to the group's 5.1 percent like-for-like sales growth achieved in fiscal year 2025. That makes the upcoming sales update important for testing whether the recovery in Taste & Wellbeing can complement the stronger Fragrance & Beauty division.
