Create your account →Warn: Primary pillar under pressure — Organic Net Revenue growth of flat to 2% for 2026: FY26 revenue guidance +2.0% vs 0%-2% target.
Mondelez grows revenue about 2% a year as guided. Free cash flow targets about $3 billion in 2026. Profit margins and earnings per share aim to stay flat to up 5%. Leadership changes strengthen the company.
Rising cocoa prices may hurt revenue growth. EPS growth is behind targets with recent guidance cuts. Cash flow shows volatility and may miss the $3 billion goal.
The price is about 28% above our fair value near $47. Analysts expect roughly 3% revenue growth, which is slightly above management's 0-2% guidance. Our fair value is well below the Street median, reflecting caution on growth and margins.
Breaks if: Adjusted EPS growth falls below 0% in FY26
Maintain Adjusted EPS growth guidance in the range of flat to 5 percent on a constant currency basis for 2026.
This is not a price target or investment advice.
A long-form read on the 1–3 year hold thesis. It updates when the weekly evidence changes.
This investment represents a durable compounder with a focus on steady revenue growth. The current thesis state is intact, supported by recent strong financial performance and a positive company momentum.
The market appears to be pricing in a durable premium compared to peers, with a moderate expectations gap. This suggests that investors are anticipating stable performance, but there may be some caution given the current valuation dynamics.
Management has set clear priorities for organic revenue growth and free cash flow, with mixed results so far. While organic net revenue growth is on track, adjusted EPS growth has lagged behind expectations, indicating potential challenges ahead.
The long-term thesis hinges on external factors like inflation trends and internal factors such as management's ability to meet guidance. Additionally, any changes in economic conditions, such as a weakening jobs report, could impact performance.
The most important moves since the prior daily snapshot.
Yes, our read has strengthened. The latest earnings beat supports a positive outlook. Organic Net Revenue growth of flat to 2% reinforces this growth potential. There are no current threats impacting the thesis.
