Actic Group AB (Buy, TP: SEK57.50) - Getting in shape for 2018

Actic’s Q3 results were in line with our forecasts, with management sending a more confident message as membership development has stabilised and the recent value-enhancing acquisition of MåBättre shows the potential in deal-making. The lack of investor focus on this small-cap growth case has resulted in a weak share price performance to date; however, a 2018e FCF yield of 11.5% (16.6% pre-expansion capex) suggests an attractive entry point. We keep our BUY recommendation and SEK57.5 target price.
