Axactor (Hold, TP: NOK6.50) - Set for improved collections

We expect Axactor to report Q1 pre-tax profit of EUR9m on increased activity and a gradual uptick in investment volumes (report due at c07:00 CET on 28 April). We expect Axactor’s collection performance to move closer to 100% in Q1 after the revaluations carried out towards end-2021. The debt-collection market is still a few quarters away from a full return to pre-pandemic activity levels, in our view, and we continue to expect EUR50m in portfolio investments for Axactor in Q1. We reiterate our HOLD but have raised our target price to NOK6.50 (6.00) on c3% higher 2022e EBIT.
