Aker BP (Buy, TP: NOK250.00) - FCF permits higher DPS, ultimately

At the CMD, the DPS announcement got most of the attention. In our view, USD450m (implying a 4.9% yield) was soft, and comments of 5% annual growth would screen unattractively over the next five years. However, we understand that this should serve as a floor with the oil price above USD40/bbl, while with the strong cash generation, there could be upside, albeit unlikely in 2021. We reiterate our BUY and NOK250 target price on the strong production growth outlook.
