A delay in regulatory compliance can reduce immediate pressure on Mondelez’s operations, preserving profit margins. Historically, companies facing regulatory hurdles see stock rallies when compliance timelines extend.
The EU's deforestation law could significantly affect Mondelez, especially in sourcing raw materials. The company's advocacy for a delay suggests strategic planning, which could stabilize its stock in the near term.
The immediate effects of regulatory delays are often felt sooner rather than later, as analysts adjust forecasts for compliance costs and production timelines within the next year.
