Nestle's First-Quarter Sales Instill Confidence in Future Volume Growth -- Market Talk

Dow Jones04-24

0759 GMT - Nestle's first-quarter sales instill confidence about the potential acceleration of real internal growth--the volume of products sold--for the year, Berenberg analysts write in a note. Comments from management show that RIG acceleration drivers are higher investments, lower price increases and capacity increases in U.S. pet care, they add. There are many reasons to feel positive about RIG in upcoming quarters due to the easing weight of infant-formula recalls, diminishing comparatives in China and the normalization in sales phasing for pet food in the U.S. However, the analysts still voice caution on risks to the Swiss food and drink conglomerate from the Middle East conflict. Shares are up 0.5% to 80.41 Swiss francs. (aimee.look@wsj.com)
