BillerudKorsnäs (Buy, TP: SEK220.00) - Value, growth, and mega-trends

We were encouraged by the positive trends in operations and earnings in Q1. From Q2e, Verso should increase EBITDA by c30% and offer a new platform for long-term growth. In addition to the strong earnings momentum and attractive valuation, the long-term earnings prospects are supported by mega-trends. We have significantly raised our EBITDA2022–2023e, and our target price to SEK220 (210). We reiterate our BUY.
