(News Bulletin 247) – Oddo maintains its outperformance rating on Michelin shares, with a price target raised from 34 to 35 euros.

The analysis office relies on the 2022 results published last night by Michelin, ‘generally in line, with an EBIT of 3396 ME vs consensus of 3371 ME’ and with a 2022 turnover slightly higher than expected at 28.6 billion euros ( vs 28.2 bnE)
