Mowi (Buy, TP: NOK195.00) - Focus on the medium term

Mowi reported Q2 operating EBIT of EUR99m, in line with consensus, but the cancellation of H1 dividends and gloomy cost guidance disappointed the market. The tough conditions in H2e and poor cost position in east Canada are passing challenges, in our view. Dividends are key for Mowi, and we expect them to resume in Q3 after the biologically high-risk autumn is over. We have cut our 2020–2022e EPS by 3.7–2.4% to reflect higher costs in Canada and the UK. We reiterate our BUY, but have trimmed our target price to NOK195 (200).
