Hexagon Composites (Buy, TP: NOK50.00) - In a transition year

2025 looks set to be a transition year, with a slower roll-out of natural gas trucks and low Mobile Pipeline activity hampering H1. Thus, we have cut our 2025e EBITDA by 24%, to the top of the guidance of NOK640m–740m that we consider to be conservative. Seeing the long-term investment case as still intact and hearing welcomed commentary on no further financial support to Hexagon Purus, we consider yesterday’s sell-off to be an overreaction. We reiterate our BUY, but have cut our target price to NOK50 (52), and see the stock trading attractively on 2025–2027e EV/EBITDAs of 10.8–5.1x.
