MNDI: Future Dividend Resilience Will Drive Rebound After Recent Downgrades

Narrative update The analyst price target for Mondi has been reduced in light of a lower fair value estimate of €13.76 from €17.67 and more cautious assumptions on revenue growth and future P/E, as analysts reassess expectations and highlight risks to dividends and prior target levels ranging from £7.60 to £12.50. Analyst Commentary Recent Street research on Mondi points to a mixed but still constructive set of views, with some firms turning more cautious while others maintain a more positive stance on execution and valuation support.
