Lerøy Seafood (Hold, TP: NOK60.00) - Disappointing quarter

The Q1 report was weak on most metrics, but the subsequent share price fall more than reflects the poor results and the market expectations have been ‘reset’. We have cut our 2019e EPS by 10%, but have left 2020–2021e largely unchanged. We have reduced our target price to NOK60 (63) but have upgraded to HOLD (SELL) after substantial underperformance versus peers.
