Pandox (Buy, TP: SEK150.00) - Cutting forecasts on cost increases
Pandox’s Q1 report was weaker than expected, as the cost increases in Operator Activities (OA) due to inflation led to an EBIT miss. In OA (17% of assets), the rising costs seemed to not be offset, despite higher average daily rates (ADR), as occupancy remained lower than expected. Based on this, combined with higher market interest rates, we have reduced our 2023–2025 EPS forecasts. We have cut our target price to SEK150 (170), but reiterate our BUY given the upside potential.Pandox AB is a hotel property company in northern Europe.
