Petroleum Geo-Services (Hold, TP: NOK21.00) - Uncertainty set to remain high

With the shares down by 35% in October and approaching our target price, we have upgraded our recommendation to HOLD (SELL), but reiterate our NOK21 target price. Near-term, we expect volatility around newsflow related to the exploration well for Azimuth, and a potential sale of the Ramform Sterling. We still consider consensus for 2019 too high, with 60% downside risk to EBIT, resulting in increased focus on its debt maturities in 2020-2021.
