Petroleum Geo-Services (Hold, TP: NOK15.00) - More questions than answers

With the Q4 results pre-announced and guidance set to be focused on cost items, we expect limited consensus revisions following the CMD on 31 January. We believe there are several key questions investors need to hear addressed to restore their confidence in the investment case, such as progress on underlying cash generation, medium-term maintenance capex needs, the quality of the Q4 beat, and refinancing risk. However, as we do not expect clarification on these topics at the CMD, we maintain our HOLD and NOK15 target price.
