Atlas Copco (Hold, TP: SEK305.00) - Time for a breather

It has been our view that sentiment for Atlas Copco’s semiconductor exposure will turn positive in 2019, and investor focus shift to Atlas Copco’s good qualities: its defensive nature, structural growth drivers, strong after-market growth, and M&A agenda. However, after recent strong share price performance and a 20% premium valuation versus its historical EV/EBIT multiples, we believe this is now priced in. Thus we have lowered our recommendation to HOLD (BUY) with a SEK305 (290) target price.
