1359 GMT - Saint-Gobain's shift to fast-growing regions and product ranges will drive market-beating growth until at least 2030, Jefferies analysts write. The French materials provider trades at an anomalous discount to its peers, and tailwinds through 2030 could include a turnaround in European and Latin American construction markets that have struggled in recent years, the analysts say. A pivot to construction-solutions offering will protect margins, the analysts write. Reigniting acquisition efforts, selling lower-margin businesses, and exiting undervalued businesses to highlight the value of its remaining operations will also boost growth, the analysts add. Saint-Gobain is up 3.7% at 86.60 euros.(josephmichael.stonor@wsj.com)
