Elekta (Buy, TP: SEK150.00) - Strong order intake in the quarter

Elekta reported Q1 FY2019/20 earnings on 22 August. Overall Q1 is usually the weakest quarter for the company. The company beat consensus sales and order intake forecasts but results were slightly shy on the EBITA line. Management reiterated the FY guidance of 8–10% organic sales growth and the “around 19%” EBITA margin targets. We keep our BUY recommendation and the SEK150 target price for the stock.
