SAS (Hold, TP: SEK13.50) - Low capacity growth going into H2e

The Q3 results were slightly above consensus and the guidance was unchanged. We believe the low capacity growth guidance for H2 should be supportive for yields, but a weak SEK and fuel hedges above market prices will put a lid on positive earnings revisions near-term. We still find 2019e earnings multiples uninspiring, and reiterate our HOLD and SEK13.5 target price.
