1132 GMT - EssilorLuxottica looks set to continue with its double-digit sales growth trajectory at constant exchange rates despite the unfavorable environment, Equita Sim's Domenico Ghilotti says. The analyst expects the Franco-Italian eyewear group to show resilience in spite of "a more challenging overall context." Market conditions have worsened partly due to the war in Iran and the repercussions of the conflict on consumer confidence and disposable income, the analyst says in a note to clients. Ghilotti doesn't expect a sharp slowdown in the second half, but noted that the geopolitical landscape and the comparison base will become more difficult from the third quarter. The stock is up 1.8%.
