AF Gruppen (Sell, TP: NOK100.00) - Profit warning: EPS and DPS cut

A profit warning published after market close on 22 August included a NOK240m project writedown in the Offshore division, and guidance for divisional net profit just in the black in Q2. As a result, we have cut our group 2024e EPS by 23.4% and DPS from NOK7 to NOK5. We reiterate our SELL, and believe the size of the 2025e P/E premium to peers is unwarranted given the sector risk (AF Gruppen is not immune, as evidenced by recent project writedowns). Our target price remains NOK100, as we focus on P/E 2025-2026e
