Lerøy Seafood (Buy, TP: NOK70.00) - Moving in the right direction

Lerøy Seafood reported Q4 operational EBIT of NOK769m, in line with our estimate and consensus. The proposed 2019 DPS of NOK2.3 was 15% above our expectation. We were positively surprised by the company planning a CMD in May/June as well as the harvest guidance of 183–188kt in 2020 and 200–210kt in 2021. We see light at the end of the communication tunnel, and reiterate our BUY and NOK70 target price.
