Boliden (Buy, TP: SEK290.00) - EPS momentum not reflected in valuation
We reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to SEK290 (250), reflecting marked-to-market metal prices and FX. Boliden is gaining earnings momentum into Q3 and we believe onwards, and we see significant potential upside to consensus that could raise 2020 EPS by 25%, which, given the solid balance sheet, could in our view be distributed to shareholders despite the potential Odda capex project.Boliden AB produces base metals such as zinc, copper and lead for industrial customers throughout Europe.
