Paradox Interactive (Buy, TP: SEK230.00) - Re-building confidence

We have lowered our target price to SEK230 (260) but reiterate our BUY after a 12% cut to our 2024e EBIT after the postponement of ‘Life By You’ and still-soft new games sales for ‘CS2’. We expect a more eventful H2, including several key releases and DLCs to drive better earnings growth momentum. In our view, the share price weakness continues to create an attractive buying opportunity.
