Grieg Seafood (Buy, TP: NOK105.00) - Solid Q3 report

Q3 operating EBIT of NOK149m was ~37% above consensus, reflecting strong price realisation, especially in British Columbia (BC). Management guided for slightly lower costs in Rogaland and Finnmark in Q4, but cut the volume guidance by 1.5kt for both regions. The company reiterated a positive market outlook, particularly in the US in 2022. We have raised our 2021e EPS on the solid Q3 beat, but have lowered our 2022–2023e EPS by 5–6% on higher feed cost estimates. We reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to NOK105 (100) on stabilising operations and reduced financial risk.
