Atlantic Sapphire (Buy, TP: NOK6.00) - H2 2022 report on the soft side

Atlantic Sapphire’s H2 2022 report showed an EBITDA loss of USD42m, below our forecast of -USD37m and consensus of -USD36m, with net interest-bearing debt in line. All eyes are on the reset ramp-up of phase 1 volumes, set for H2 2023. We reinstate a recommendation with a BUY and NOK6 target price, corresponding to 50% of the plant’s replacement value.
