Viaplay Group (Buy, TP: SEK450.00) - Plenty for football fans

We reiterate our BUY but have lowered our target price to SEK450 (510) after an average c13% cut to our 2023–2024e adj. EBIT, reflecting rising streaming market risk (deteriorating consumer outlook). We view Q3 as a trough earnings quarter (costs for new premium sports rights), with impressive 80% subs growth YOY, before a strong improvement in Q4 thanks to a greater impact from pricing. We would see signs of Viaplay’s streaming resilience as a near-term share-price catalyst.
