We forecast Q4 operational EBIT of NOK272m, c12% below consensus at NOK308m. Our deviation versus consensus is largely due to a lower salmon spot price forecast for Q4 2018. We expect consensus to move down towards our estimate ahead of the report. We have trimmed our 2018e EPS by 1.5% due to lower than expected spot price in the quarter. We reiterate our HOLD and NOK200 target price. The report is due out at CET 06:30 on 12 February.
