French term or phrase: notre opinion Renforcer
It feels as though there is something missing here, punctuation, a word...

En outre, cette acquisition donne au groupe une position réellement internationale et un statut de leader mondial dans les ingrédients naturels de spécialité. Ce qui conjugué au potentiel d’appréciation (12%) justifie le maintien de notre opinion Renforcer.

This an analysis of a merger, and its financial consequences. Granted that the acquisition gives this particular company international status, "... this, combined with the potential for appreciation, justifies supporting/maintaining our opinion to consolidate?"

It should say 'de' or there should perhaps be a period, as in recommendations where the writer will say: Buy, sell, consolidate.

Suggestions?

our "Consolidate" opinion
Explanation:
Assuming this is share analyst advice.
They give a share a "Vendre/Alleger/Conserver/Renforcer/Acheter" label, which obviously changes with events, performance etc.

So yes, not very grammatical, but that is the jargon.

sense of phrase: notre opinion Renforcer
our opinion to Consolidate


Explanation:
According to the WWW, this term does exist within a financial context.

My translation attempt.

Moreover, this acquisition gives the group a truly international position and a status of world leader. Which combined with the appreciation potential (12%) justifies supporting *our opinion to Consolidate*.

our recommendation to add to the position


Explanation:
Basically, this is a broking recommendation that tells investors to add to the position (it's a bit weaker than saying "buy")
