0959 GMT - Carlsberg's third-quarter update is expected to confirm that it has been a challenging quarter for the company, Jyske Bank senior analyst Haider Anjum writes. Western Europe remains under pressure from the loss of the San Miguel contract, while the Polish market has been challenged by extreme rain, and developments in Ukraine have worsened, he says. Jyske Bank expects the Danish brewer's organic sales in the quarter to fall 1.0% and volumes to drop 2.6% on year, against consensus looking for declines of 1.6% and 3.0%, respectively. Despite the headwinds, the bank expects the company to maintain its full-year guidance of 3%-5% organic EBIT growth. It retains a buy rating on the stock and lowers the price target to 950 Danish kroner from 1,000 kroner. Shares rise 0.1% to 794.40 kroner. (dominic.chopping@wsj.com)
