Kongsberg Gruppen (Buy, TP: NOK312.00) - Three tailwinds in total

We see a positive outlook for all three business segments, as Defence is likely to see steady growth from a solid order book. In Maritime, we see ample room for revenue growth from the global merchant fleet switching from fossil-based fuels to more advanced and greener alternatives. We believe Digital will contribute considerably to earnings from 2023e. We have lifted our 2022–2023e EPS by 8%. We consider a 2022e EV/EBITDA of 9.5x justified and have upgraded to BUY (HOLD) and raised our target price to NOK312 (250).
