Berenberg moves to hold on Paddy Power
Berenberg has had a change of heart in respect of betting firm Paddy Power Betfair (LON:PPB) and moved to a ‘hold’ call (from ‘sell’) after taking a fresh look at the leisure and gaming sector.
“In this report, we upgrade Paddy Power Betfair from Sell to Hold (PT 830p), as we have adjusted our numbers to incorporate its more bullish 2016 guidance and, following relatively poor share price performance, we think the current market multiples are hefty but sustainable.
“While risks to earnings on the UK digital side are substantial, we acknowledge that risks to its gaming machines revenues are extremely limited.”
The bank has upped its target to £83 from £75.
