Mondelez stock price forecast incorporates anticipated benefits from automation investment and supply chain efficiency programs, expected to enhance operating margin by 50 basis points in the upcoming fiscal year. The high three-year median payout ratio of 52% (that is, the company retains only 48% of its income) over the past three years for Mondelez International suggests that the company's earnings growth was lower as a result of paying out a majority of its earnings. Among the 23 analysts covering MDLZ stock, the consensus is a “Strong Buy.” That’s based on 16 “Strong Buys” ratings, one “Moderate Buy,” and six “Holds.” Recent analyst calls highlight Mondelez stock price forecast potential tied to strong demand elasticity, meaning price increases have not materially impacted volume growth.
