Mowi (Buy, TP: NOK210.00) - More Q3 headwinds than expected

Mowi’s trading update revealed operating EBIT of EUR203m for Q3, 16% below our estimate of EUR242m and 11% below consensus of EUR229m. The miss was driven by higher farming costs, as feed and consumer products performed well. We have cut our Q3 operational EBIT by 17%, but also believe some of the challenges will hurt the Q4 results, with higher costs and a slightly lower harvest. We have cut our 2023–2025e EPS by 10.1–1.3%, and have trimmed our target price to NOK210 (215), but reiterate our BUY. The full Q3 report is due at 06:30 CET on 18 November.
