Elopak (Hold, TP: NOK37.00) - Higher-than-expected Q1 margins
Elopak reported strong Q1 results, with the EBITDA margin in its European operations beating our and consensus forecast. We see the potential for an increased group EBITDA margin target at the CMD in September. We have raised our 2025–2026e EPS by 7%, and in turn our target price to NOK37 (34). At the same time, we believe margins are at the high end of normalised levels, and struggle to see material upside potential from here. Trading at a 2025e P/E of ~12x, and with limited organic top-line growth prospects and an implied dividend yield of ~4% in the current high interest rate environment, we reiterate our HOLD.
