DNO (Buy, TP: NOK13.00) - A classic buy the dip

DNO was hit hard (down 10%, or NOK1.0) on its weakish Q4 results. However, with only an insignificant impact on our NAV, we consider the share price drop a particularly attractive buying opportunity. We see continued payments from the KRG and a reserve update on the Peshkabir field as potential catalysts. With USD430m in cash on the balance sheet, and as the shares are trading at an implied oil price of cUSD50/bbl, we expect DNO to consider doing share buybacks, which would be highly NAV accretive and share price supportive on our estimates.
