Aker ASA (Buy, TP: NOK775.00) - Get the unlisted assets ‘for free’
We estimate Aker is trading at a 25% discount to our NOK861 NAV/share, with the value of listed assets and cash above the current share price, which we find attractive. We forecast that the NAV grew by 10% in Q2, mainly due to Aker BP and Cognite. We reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to NOK775 (770) to reflect the higher NAV.Aker is an industrial investment company that exercises active ownership.
