Avance Gas (Buy, TP: NOK48.00) - Fleet on water at hefty discount

We reiterate our BUY, while we have reduced our target price to NOK48 (50), as we now believe the stock should trade in line with the 2018–2019 range of an EV/GAV of 0.90x (0.95x). With increasing values for LPG propulsion, we believe more than 50% of the current enterprise value is in the newbuilds. The fleet on water has an average age of 9.1 years, with implied values of cUSD34m, a discount of more than 40% – unwarranted in our view.
