Imperial Tobacco was downgraded to sell from neutral on Tuesday at UBS, which said the stock is fully valued and market consensus for fiscal 2011 onwards is too high. Post-2010, the investment bank said, the rate of underlying earnings per share growth will slow significantly as the bulk of cost savings from the Altadis integration are completed and the group remains unable to repurchase stock or make any meaningful acquisitions as it tries to re gear. Imperial also derives 70% of its profit from Europe and in the longer term, growth will come from emerging markets, where it has limited exposure. Lack of distribution in emerging markets and lack of big international brands means it's tough to see how Imperial can change this, said UBS.
