Olav Thon (Buy, TP: NOK220.00) - Deep value, strong performance

Tenant sales in the group’s malls increased by 6.4% in Q4. Reflectingthe new lockdown measures, with many of its shopping malls closed in 1Q20 and ongoing uncertainty, no dividend was proposed for 2020. However, we see prospects of an extraordinary payout later in 2021 if the market stabilises as we expect. Q4 profit from property management (PFPM) was in line with our estimate, but FFO missed on a higher tax rate. Olav Thon remains a deep-value – although limited liquidity and divided-yield – stock, but operations are solid and it has outperformed most European peers long-term. We reiterate our BUY and NOK220 target price.
