Asgard Alcobev remains highly sensitive to the ongoing Iran conflict, given its significant exposure to Gulf markets, which contribute a substantial portion of its revenues.
Escalating geopolitical tensions have led to a sharp rise in energy-linked input costs, including glass, PET, and logistics fuel, putting pressure on margins. Additionally, supply chain disruptions, marked by logistical bottlenecks and longer transit times, are impacting the timely fulfillment of export orders. Overall, the conflict poses a meaningful headwind for the company, and is likely to result in downward revisions to earnings estimates for the remainder of FY2026.
