RBC cut its earnings-per-share forecasts for H&M by 2% to 3% for 2026 and 2027, citing lower like-for-like sales assumptions and higher operating costs. For 2027 and 2028, it trimmed earnings forecasts by 6% and reduced its price target to 95 pence from 100 pence. The bank noted German store sales down nearly 4% year to date, while online sales rose 4% year on year.

ABOUT

What is Fimmer?

Most feeds treat all company headlines the same. An executive interview, an office closure, stock analysis, and a data breach can sit side by side with no sense of scale. Fimmer ranks coverage by what matters, so important events stand out and signals are prioritised over noise. We cluster related company news and score each story using a range of metrics, so you see the most crucial stories first.

SCORING

What do the scores mean?

Significance (0–10) measures the scale of the real-world impact. Sentiment and ESG (−10 to +10) indicate the tone of the coverage and whether the change relates to environmental, social, or governance factors. Together, these scores help distinguish meaningful developments from routine company news. More information about our scoring methodology can be found on our About page.
