Embracer Group (Buy, TP: SEK43.00) - Closing in on FCF delivery

We see a good potential that Embracer will achieve key catalysts: Q3–Q4e adj. EBIT of SEK2.2bn–1.8bn; more FCF improvements; and potential divestments to strengthen the balance sheet. We have reduced our 2023/24e EPS by 3% and cut our target price to SEK43 (45), but reiterate our BUY, expecting Tabletop and Mobile to be healthy in Q3. Also, we believe an improved back catalogue and release schedule bodes well for PC/Console in Q4.
