Profits first, expansion second
We reiterate our BUY recommendation but have cut our target price to NOK37 (NOK39). We believe Odfjell should restore profitability at Terminals before expanding into new segments outside its main area. High tanker fleet growth makes us believe that it could take some time before the cycle turns, but that Odfjell is well positioned following an impressive turnaround.Odfjell is engaged in the global market for transportation and storage of chemicals and other specialty bulk liquids, LPG/Ethylene products as well as a provider of related logistical services. Co.'s principal business is the transportation and storage of organic and inorganic bulk liquid chemicals, acids, animal fats, edible oils, potable alcohols, LPG/Ethylene and clean petroleum products. Co. has three reportable business segments: Chemical Tankers, which involve the servicing ports around the world; Tank Terminals, which engaged in cargo-consolidation programme in combined shipping and storage services; and LPG/ Ethylene, which Co. owns two carriers, Bow Guardian and Bow Gallant.
