Faroe Petroleum (Buy, TP: GBP145.00) - Fully funded for growth
The full-year 2017 results are due on 20 March. As the 2018 guidance, 2017 year-end reserves, and 2017 operational figures have been previously reported, we expect the results to be a minor event. We forecast EBITDA GBP49m, roughly in line with Bloomberg consensus of GBP53m. We keep our BUY recommendation due to the strong balance sheet, strong exploration record, quality assets, and attractive valuation. We have lifted our target price to GBp145 (142) on the back of the NAV increase.Faroe Petroleum plc is an oil and gas company.
