Norsk Hydro (Sell, TP: NOK50.00) - Back to fundamentals-based prices

Our Q2 EBITDA forecast of NOK7.6bn is based on higher aluminium prices (results due at 07:00 CET on 23 July). However, as we do not believe the recent bounce was founded on fundamentals, after Q2 we estimate prices to decline towards USD2,200/t, as seen in March. Norsk Hydro’s NOK64 share price reflects too-optimistic aluminium prices, in our view, and we reiterate our SELL and NOK50 target price. We have raised our 2025–2026e EPS by 5% to account for higher alumina prices.
