1017 GMT - Heidelberg Materials' optimistic outlook for 2026 should provide some reassurance, Jefferies analysts say in a research note. While the German building-materials group frames the guidance in a similar context to last year, the analysts think foreign-exchange headwinds might lead to minor trims to consensus estimates. "After a very lumpy share price performance so far in 2026, Heidelberg Materials remains inexpensive," they add. Shares trade 3.1% lower at 194.6 euros. (nina.kienle@wsj.com)
