CONSUMER STAPLES: Walgreen Boots (B1 Stable/BB Neg) final remarks on 4Q
CONSUMER STAPLES
- We can confirm it said a $100m benefit to the FY adj. EBIT from store closures (will scale higher as years go/leases roll-off).
- Net we still see the release as credit neutral but as we said the €26s were heading in wide and that seems to be correcting.
- Equities trade at an abysmal multiple so a +10% gain is hardly a sign of a recovery.
Moves:
- new $29s +1.7pts/-50bps
- €26s +0.6pts/-30bps
- £25s unch
Reported margins for FY24 and FY25 based on provided guidance updated below.
