Nel (Sell, TP: NOK3.00) - Headwinds remain strong

While management has remained optimistic, orders have been few and far between, and most recently a large capacity reservation agreement was cancelled. We see growing impairment risk, as payments from one of its largest clients still appear to be missing (c30% booked 2023 revenues). Focus ahead will be to minimise cost burn, while still searching for new orders to support utilisation of its recent capacity additions. We reiterate our SELL, with a reduced target price of NOK3 (3.5).
