Ocean Yield (Buy, TP: NOK28.00) - Connector out

Ocean Yield announced on Friday that it had sold the 2011-built construction and cable-laying vessel “Connector” to a third party. We had forecast a slight positive net profit contribution for the unit in 2021, but negative USD5m on cash, and believe consensus for the unit was low. Pro-rata, the transaction looks neutral for Ocean Yield’s cash position, while negative 1%-point for the equity ratio. The company continues to build down exposure to the offshore space, in our view reducing dividend-capacity uncertainty.
