** Shares in Hornbach HBH.DE fall 7% after the company posted Q2 adjusted earnings below expectations

** The holding, which owns DIY stores operator Hornbach Baumarkt, reported Q2 sales in line with analysts's forecast but it's adjusted EBIT was a miss

** "The combination of a strong YTD performance (+40%) heading into the event, continued muted consumer sentiment across Europe and the absence of an upgrade to the outlook may lead to some profit taking this morning," Metzler's analysts say

** Stock at the bottom of the German small-cap index .SDAXI
