Avance Gas (Buy, TP: NOK28.00) - Improvements on the horizon

Avance Gas wraps up the year with strongest operating performance relative to our VLGC TCE benchmark since 2015. Its liquidity position is strong enough to withstand historically low spot rates until Q4 2019 in a bear-case scenario, but we believe the company will generate cash from H1 2018. US production growth looks strong YTD and supports our view of improving utilisation and rates for VLGCs from 2018. We reiterate our BUY recommendation and NOK28 target price.
