0134 GMT - Cochlear won't get a good start to its next fiscal year but there is still some cause for optimism, Jarden analysts say. While the hearing implant maker has slashed its FY 2026 profit guidance on weak unit sales, the Jarden analysts tell clients in a note that the Australian company's services segment appears to be rebounding into fiscal 2027. Elsewhere, they acknowledge that competition is making acoustics revenue growth unpredictable, but still cite 11% March-quarter growth as a positive. Jarden cuts its target price on the stock 25% to A$169.00 and maintains a neutral rating. Shares are down 1.4% at A$98.19. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
