Holcim shares have the potential for price increases due to positive spin-off fantasies and growth prospects.

Analyst consensus currently shows eleven "buy" recommendations, thirteen "holds," and one "sell," indicating an overall optimistic outlook for the company.

Market observers expect a future payout ratio of 50 to 60 percent, consistent with Holcim's current dividend payout of around 50 percent, resulting in a yield of approximately 3.4 percent. If this ratio is realized, the dividend yield could increase to between 5 and 6 percent, which is notably high for Switzerland. This revaluation of the dividend yield may lead to a higher valuation of Holcim's remaining shares, generating more investor interest in the company.
