Nestle under new CEO Laurent Freixe is rebasing the medium-term organic growth target after multi-year underperformance versus historical peer norms. Pricing-led growth is rolling off into a volume-recovery phase that has been uneven. Strategic priorities (coffee, pet food, nutritional health) remain solid but execution requires multi-year investment in advertising and innovation. L'Oreal stake remains a hidden asset (~CHF20bn) and source of optionality. Defensive dividend yield ~3.5% provides a floor.
