Lerøy Seafood (Buy, TP: NOK100.00) - Minor model update

We have updated our estimates, owing to the Q1 trading update released on 8 April. We have adjusted our harvest numbers and now forecast Q1 operating EBIT of NOK881m, 8% below consensus (which has yet to adjust). We expect the low harvest in Q1 (32.1kt versus our previous estimate of 41kt) to be recouped later in the year. We do not consider these changes to be material, and we have not changed our BUY recommendation. We reiterate our NOK100 target price. The full Q1 report is due at 06:30 CET on 13 May.
