Odfjell SE (Buy, TP: NOK90.00) - Well placed for market strength

Odfjell Tankers reported Q2 TCE per day up ~22% QOQ, with its strongest quarterly results since 2007. We expect the current market strength to prevail – supported by abating swing tonnage (driven by product market strength) and a tight supply outlook (orderbook-to-fleet ratio of ~6.5%). Consequently, a strong spot market coupled with rising interest for contracts of affreightment (COAs) at higher pricing should benefit Odfjell, which currently has COA coverage of 50%. We reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to NOK90 (65).
