(News Bulletin 247) – Stifel on Monday raised its price target on the Dassault Aviation stock, which it still considers ‘undervalued’ despite its recent stock market outperformance.

According to Stifel, the market has not further integrated the company’s 25% stake in Thales, estimated at some 7.1 billion euros, nor a net cash position which should reach 12.4 billion euros. euros at the end of 2023.

The professional, who maintains his recommendation to buy the title, therefore raises his target price on the value from 185 to 240 euros.
