  Barclays takes a cautiously optimistic view of Unilever PLC's (LSE:ULVR) proposed demerger of its ice cream division, home to iconic brands like Magnum, Ben & Jerry's and Wall's, arguing that execution risk and valuation uncertainties may temper the market's enthusiasm in the near term. The planned separation, expected to be completed by the end of 2025, is part of Unilever's broader strategy to sharpen its focus on faster-growing, higher-margin segments.
