Boliden (Buy, TP: SEK240.00) - Value story intact

We reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to SEK240 (235), reflecting marked-to-market metal prices and FX. Even though Boliden kept its 2020 capex outlook and working capital build-up could hinder cash flows, we believe the value story is intact. Boliden is in our view one of the few companies in the sector with acceptable 2020e multiples and set to pay dividends; the stock is trading at a P/E of 9.7x and FCF yield of 6%. We have lifted our 2020–2021e EBIT by c5–8%.
