(Sharecast News) - Analysts at Berenberg kept their recommendation for Whitbread at 'buy', arguing that markets were wrong to price in a continued drop in demand.
The supply/demand balance in the UK continued to be favourable and the company's Accelerating Growth Plan was capable of driving "strong" growth in profit before tax into the medium-term.
So too, the German operations were headed towards breakeven and the Euro 2024 championships would help to raise the brand awareness of Premier Inn.

The broker kept its target price at 4,000.0p.
