Dorian LPG (Buy, TP: USD52.00) - Appealing VLGC exposure

We expect the robust VLGC freight market to persist due to solid US production and exports (up 7% and 17% YTD YOY), fuelling the arbitrage, with the longevity of the cycle backed by slowing vessel deliveries in the next two years. Hence, we see upside potential to our USD45k/day spot rate for the next four quarters (for a 9% earnings yield). Increasing our spot rate equal to the arbitrage for the next two quarters and then to the 1-year TC rate, we calculate a 20% yield for the same period. We have upgraded to BUY and raised our target price to USD52.0 (48.1).
