Oddo BHF upgraded Swiss industrial technology company OC Oerlikon to "outperform" from "neutral" on Monday, triggering a share price increase of up to 7.8%, the largest gain since 8 April. The stock had closed at CHF 4.23 on the preceding Friday. Analyst Christian Arnold raised his price target for OC Oerlikon to CHF 5.30 from CHF 3.90. In its outlook revision, Oddo BHF increased its fiscal year 2026 sales assumption by 2% and adjusted the EBITDA forecast upward by 8%, both figures surpassing the company’s own guidance. Arnold highlighted strong order intake and organic sales growth in the first quarter, supported by high materials costs, but cautioned that high first‑half organic growth is not expected.
