Klaveness Combination Carriers (Buy, TP: NOK137.00) - Harvesting steady premiums

The Q1 report revealed strong operations to maximise the value of the company’s unique three-legged market position, providing attractive exposure to upside potential in strong shipping markets, while diversifying possible downside risk. Bulkers and tankers are seeing a constructive supply story over the coming years, while regulations monetise KCC’s unrivalled efficiency. Thus, we find KCC remains undervalued and we reiterate our BUY. We have raised our target price to NOK137 (124).
