Schibsted (Hold, TP: NOK320.00) - Cautious distribution

Schibsted has announced a final agreement for the sale of News Media to the Tinius Trust and an intention to return NOK24bn to shareholders. We find the proposed distribution slightly on the low side as it will leave Schibsted debt free. Furthermore, we continue to find the proposed selling price for News Media low.

Schibsted (Hold, TP: NOK320.00) - All key segments set to disappoint

We are cautious ahead of Schibsted’s Q1 results (due at 07.00 CET on 26 April), expecting all the key segments to miss consensus on a combination of lower sales and higher costs. We reiterate our HOLD and NOK320 target price.

Schibsted (Hold, TP: NOK320.00) - News Media disguises softness

The Q4 report was soft, as the slight earnings beat was driven by news Media, which is set up for sale, while the outlook for Jobs and Lendo has led us to make slight reductions to our 2024e EBITDA. We reiterate our HOLD and NOK320 target price as we continue to see valuation support, with the stock trading in line with our SOTP.

Schibsted (Hold, TP: NOK320.00) - Time for reflection

Our Q4e EBITDA is 7% below consensus, driven by Nordic Marketplaces, as we see softer volume trends across the main verticals. We have raised our target price to NOK320 (290) but downgraded to HOLD (BUY), as the stock is trading in line with our SOTP adjusted for the potential selling price for Adevinta and News Media.
