NRC Group (Buy, TP: NOK20.00) - Q2 supportive for recovery case

The Q2 results were broadly in line with our estimates and Bloomberg consensus, while NRC restated its focus on improving the EBIT margin. We find this supportive for the recovery case and reiterate our BUY and NOK20 target price. Given the new CEO is set to start on 1 October, a near-term relief rally seems premature, despite the positive Q2 margin trend. The upside potential to our target price remains one of the largest among our covered construction names – but so is the risk.
