Billerud (Buy, TP: SEK150.00) - Rosy outlook for cash

Billerud’s CMD was interesting, in our view, and contained positive and negative news. Although there are no imminent plans for pursuing buybacks, this was mitigated by prudent investment guidance for 2025–2027, cSEK1.4bn below our estimate (c. SEK6/share). Considering FX tailwinds (stronger USD) combined with improving European markets beyond 2024e, we find the new long-term EBITDA target of at least SEK6bn per year realistic. We reiterate our BUY and SEK150 target price.
