Hufvudstaden (Sell, TP: SEK152.00) - Good assets, but overvalued
Hufvudstaden reported a Q1 that was marginally below our FFO forecast due to higher than expected payable taxes. The vacancy rate jumped to 6.2% due to ongoing developments, but was 2.3% excluding the developments. While the quality of its assets remains undoubtedly among the best in Sweden, we find the valuation of these high and reiterate our SELL recommendation. However, we have raised our target price to SEK152 (138), having rolled forward our valuation to reflect 2021e earnings and NAV forecasts.Hufvudstaden AB is a property company that owns and manages 30 properties, located in the central parts of Stockholm and Gothenburg, Sweden.
