Boliden (Buy, TP: SEK420.00) - In a sweet spot
Despite low mining volumes, the Q1 results were close to our expectations, thanks to good cost control. We have made significant estimate increases on better metal price and FX assumptions, and beyond 2024 we continue to see additional earnings support from: 1) higher mining volumes due to richer metal grades; 2) normal operations at Rönnskär; and 3) growing profits from the Odda smelter. Our spot-based estimates for 2027 translate to an EV/EBIT of 5.2x, but we see significant upside potential to our forecasts on our view of a promising outlook for copper and gold. We have raised our target price to SEK420 (380) and reiterate our BUY.
