Norsk Hydro (Buy, TP: NOK58.00) - Alunorte in focus

We reiterate our BUY and NOK58 target price ahead of Q2 (due at 07:00 CET on 24 July) but have cut our 2018e EBITDA by 9% (limited changes for 2019–2020e) as we now pencil a restart in Alunorte in Q4 (previously Q3). We remain upbeat on aluminium fundamentals from strong demand growth, Chinese capacity controls, and stock drawdowns but an escalation of a trade tensions remains a risk to demand in our view.
