Summary

  • Kraft Heinz offers stability with strong cash flows, high margins, and a generous 5-6% dividend yield despite stagnant revenue growth in mature markets.
  • Emerging markets are a bright spot, delivering double-digit sales growth, while North America and Europe face volume declines and private label competition.
  • Valuation models indicate a fair value of $31 per share, representing a 16% upside; I recommend buying KHC as a defensive investment.
  • Key risks include continued volume pressure in core markets and potential margin headwinds from tariffs and rising costs, but shareholder returns remain robust.

Hi there! I’m Narek, and I’ve been in the investment world for over six years. I started out as an equity analyst at European banks, digging into reports and learning how to spot value in the markets. I’ve worked across sectors — from telecom to industry — and found that behind every financial statement is a real story. I studied in Belgium — did my bachelor’s in Antwerp, master’s at KU Leuven, and later completed an MBA in Finance at Vlerick. That journey gave me both theory and hands-on skills. Now I’m building my own investment project focused on the CIS region. I’m passionate about applying Western analytical tools to uncover hidden value in emerging markets. If you enjoy deep, fundamentals-driven research and digging beneath the surface of a company — glad to have you on board!
