Nov 13

0757 GMT - Germany's Merck KGaA reported a strong set of third-quarter results, with adjusted earnings beating expectations, which should help its shares when the market opens, J.P. Morgan analysts say in a research note. Quarterly sales were 2% ahead of consensus expectations and Ebitda before exceptional items beat forecasts by 7%, the analysts say. Both at the top and bottom lines, the performance of Merck's electronics business is the main driver the better-than-expected results, JPM says. The company also tightened its full-year guidance ranges. This, together with the better-than-forecast results, could lead to small upgrades to consensus expectations and to shares outperforming, the analysts say. (adria.calatayud@wsj.com)
