Mowi (Buy, TP: NOK235.00) - Neutral Q1, positive cost outlook

Q1 operating EBIT of EUR201m was in line with the trading update, but 4% below consensus of EUR210m. Q2 in Norway looks better; Mowi guided for lower costs in H2 and fewer fish downgrades next winter. The 2024 volume guidance remained 500kt. The proposed DPS of NOK1.5 was below expectations of NOK1.9–2.0. Mowi sees global supply growth of 1% in 2024, strong demand in Europe and a market recovery in the Americas. We find the report neutral, and see 0–1% changes to consensus 2024e EPS, with a similar move in the share price today.
