01:04 AM EST, 01/06/2026 (MT Newswires) -- "Record" order intakes for Munters Group's (MTRS.ST) Data Centre Technologies unit in the fourth quarter of 2025 prompted Berenberg to adjust its model and raise its price target for the Swedish air treatment and climate systems company. "While we expect Munters' Q4 [2025] results to be mixed, we expect these to be overshadowed by the record order intake for the company's Data Centre Technologies (DCT) division in Q4, which drives our 2027 EPS estimates 15% higher. However, we argue that the improved outlook has already been incorporated into the share price, causing us to maintain our neutral recommendation towards the shares. We increase our price target to SEK175 (from SEK150) and maintain our Hold rating," analysts said Monday. Munters is scheduled to publish its full-year 2025 results on Jan. 29, 2026. Analysts anticipate Munters to report a 105% year-over-year increase in fourth-quarter 2025 order intakes to 8.91 billion kronor, supported by the Data Centre Technologies unit. Meanwhile, revenue and adjusted EBITDA are forecasted to hold steady compared with the previous year at 3.91 billion kronor and 504 million kronor, respectively. After adjusting its model, the research firm forecasts that Data Centre Technologies revenue will rise by 25% in both 2026 and 2027, hitting 9.4 billion kronor in the latter year. Meanwhile, Berenberg kept its projections for Munters' AirTech and FoodTech divisions "largely intact," noting a more robust kronor relative to euro, US dollar and Chinese yuan.
