RBC Capital Markets has downgraded Burberry from "outperform" to "sector perform" and cut its price target from £14 to £12, citing a cooling luxury market rather than issues with Burberry's strategy. While RBC praises Burberry's Forward plan and store improvements, it expects subdued demand for luxury goods like handbags and coats through 2027. Burberry's growth depends on volume rather than price hikes, making it vulnerable to weak consumer sentiment. RBC now forecasts 3% annual organic growth to 2029, down from 5%, and trimmed profit estimates accordingly. The stock trades around £10, with RBC suggesting a downside to £8 if conditions worsen and upside to £15 if they improve. Investors await Burberry's half-year results on 12 November for further insight.
