Company Report

Divestment of DSM's Animal Health Business Will Establish a Strong Underlying Business

DSM-Firmenich is one of the largest consumer chemical companies in the world. A majority of revenue is derived from segments that benefit from leading market positions across increasingly consolidated industries, such as flavor and fragrance, and the broader food ingredients market. This has earned the company a wide moat, stemming from intangible assets and switching costs.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

The combination of DSM and Firmenich provides a compelling proposition for large multinational customers, with the company able to provide a wide range of specialized ingredients and solutions across nutrition as well as flavor and fragrance.

Bears

The limited overlap between DSM's and Firmenich's businesses will make it difficult for management to achieve all the planned revenue synergies.
