Prices have retreated from this morning’s high, reflecting a pullback toward the session low.

Shares moved after the company announced a review of its top 200 roles, with plans for a 25% 'refresh' and 7,500 job cuts worldwide as part of a wider restructuring strategy. CEO Fernando Fernandez is accelerating changes while reaffirming 2025 sales growth targets of 3-5%. This follows an expected 3-5% annual organic growth forecast for the ice cream division ahead of a planned spin-off (Reuters, 3 September 2025).

Third-party forecasts for Unilever’s share price over the next five years vary as of 15 September 2025, generally indicating gradual growth supported by brand resilience, cost-saving initiatives, and sustainability investments. Projections balance opportunities in emerging markets with macroeconomic risks and sector competition.
