MNDI: Future Dividend Resilience Will Drive Re Rating Despite Mixed Broker Stances

Analysts have trimmed Mondi's fair value only slightly, to about £13.64 from £13.66, reflecting a series of reduced price targets in the £780 to £1,030 range as they factor in updated assumptions on discount rates, revenue growth, profit margins and future P/E. Analyst Commentary Recent Street research on Mondi presents a mixed but informative picture, with price targets spread across a wide range and ratings spanning Buy, Neutral and Underweight.
