PGS (Sell, TP: NOK4.00) - This time is no different

Since 2014, PGS has done limited deleveraging of its balance sheet. While an improving seismic market is beneficial, we see several headwinds that should make PGS unable to generate enough cash flow to meet its debt obligations. Thus, we believe the refinancing risk remains elevated, with possible further equity needs by mid-2023e or a balance sheet restructuring. Following a change of analyst, we reiterate our SELL, but have raised our target price to NOK4 (1) on higher estimates.
