Euronav (Hold, TP: USD9.00) - Disappointing Q4 left behind

The Q4 results are expected before market open on 25 January and we are 15% below consensus on adjusted EBITDA. The past quarter is shaping up to be another key quarter for Euronav in its pursuit of securing the #1 spot in listed VLCC tanker companies through merging with Gener8 Maritime. The news was a welcome Christmas gift for Gener8 shareholders, lifting the end-2017 share price by c50%. We reiterate HOLD, target price raised to USD9.0 (USD8.4).
