Flex LNG (Hold, TP: NOK360.00) - Steady yield name

As the Q1 results offered limited news, we have made only minor revisions to our 2023–2025e EBITDA, averaging cUSD300m per year. Flex LNG’s first vessels will likely become available in 2027, and with recent fixtures of ~USD100k/day at 10-year durations, we find the vessels well placed to add cash flows to build on its quarterly dividend of USD0.75/share. However, with the towering orderbook at 50%+ of the fleet, the sector is reliant on elevated LNG prices fuelling arbitrage trading and efficiency gains for modern assets. We reiterate our HOLD but have cut our target price to NOK360 (390).
