Mowi (Buy, TP: NOK260.00) - Neutral Q2 versus estimates

Mowi reported a record-high EBIT margin with operational EBIT of EUR320m for Q2, as pre-announced in the trading update. We were encouraged by the strong earnings for consumer products and the guidance for H2 costs to be in line with H1, suggesting an inflection point in the feed cost trend. We have cut our 2022e EPS by 10% due to the lower than expected QTD spot price in the US market, and our reduced growth forecasts for Chile. We reiterate our BUY, but have cut our target price to NOK260 (270).
