Mowi (Buy, TP: NOK210.00) - Q4 in line, neutral guidance

Mowi reported operating EBIT of EUR239m, in line with the pre-announced numbers. Guidance was for costs marginally up in Q1 2023, due to lower seasonal volumes, but it sees falling cost of stock in 2023, which is positive. 2023 guidance increased to 484kt (470kt) on inclusion of 15kt from Iceland, with only minor underlying adjustments. DPS of NOK1.70 was somewhat below consensus, but reasonable in our view given the current tax uncertainty. We expect a 0–1% positive revision to consensus 2023 EPS and a similar share price reaction.
