BMW's Capital Markets Day Unlikely to Be Transformational -- Market Talk

0958 GMT - BMW's investor event later this month will probably showcase an evolutionary rather than a transformational strategy, Deutsche Bank analyst Tim Rokossa writes. "Most major strategic initiatives, including workforce reductions and efficiency measures, have already been announced, leaving limited scope for significant surprises, in our view." The bank expects BMW to refine its equity story around the Neue Klasse car model cycle, cost savings and efficiency gains, and resilient cash generation supporting continued shareholder returns. "At the same time, we would not be surprised to see management push out its 8%-10% medium-term margin target by around two years to early 2030s, reflecting a more challenging industry backdrop and a lower starting point." The bank rates BMW stock at buy with 90 euro target price. Shares fall 1.9% to 60.02 euros. (dominic.chopping@wsj.com)
