Most Popular Narrative: 34% Undervalued

Against Davide Campari-Milano’s last close of €5.96, the most followed valuation story points to a fair value of €9.02, using an 8.64% discount rate to frame what the current price implies about execution on growth and margin ambitions.

While analyst consensus sees cost discipline and efficiency improvements supporting margin expansion, the scale and speed of Campari's SG&A and portfolio streamlining could drive substantially faster EBIT margin accretion and free cash flow generation, particularly as divestments disproportionately shed low-margin brands and SG&A is explicitly guided to drop by 200 basis points over three years.
