Sharecast - Deutsche Bank expects to see Diageo deliver organic sales growth of 5.3%, organic operating profit growth of 4.0%, reported sales of £9.07bn, reported underlying earnings of £3.14bn, and earnings per share of 97.2p.
The German bank highlighted that having not given guidance at the time of its full-year results, it does not expect explicit 2023 guidance to be given along with the interim results.
However, DB expects the company to reiterate its medium-term guidance of 5-7% organic sales growth and operating profit growth of 6-9% for 2023-25.
Deutsche Bank , which reiterated its 'sell' rating on the stock, added that commentary around consumer demand, particularly downtrading, and cost pressures will likely be the "key" components of Diageo 's interims.
