Atea (Buy, TP: NOK180.00) - Buy ahead of 2024e upcycle
We have made only limited estimate revisions and are below consensus on EBIT for Q4 (tough comparables and a halted frame agreement in Denmark), while we are materially above consensus on 2024–2025e EBIT, as we expect an IT estate upgrade/refresh cycle from H2 2024 to benefit Atea. Furthermore, the stock continues to trade at an unwarranted discount to peers in our view, despite having appreciated towards the end of 2023. As such, we reiterate our BUY and NOK180 target price.Atea is a Nordic and Baltic supplier of Information Technology (IT) infrastructure. Co. delivers IT products from vendors.
