Scandi Standard (Hold, TP: SEK64.00) - Improvements towards year-end

Scandi Standard reported Q1 numbers largely in line with expectations, with EBITDA of SEK148m, 5% above our estimates, but 5% below consensus. Management guides for a still-sluggish market and margin in Q2, but sees improvement towards the end of the year. We have cut our 2018e EPS by 6.5% due to a slower market recovery than we had expected and higher net financials than we expected in connection with Manor Farms. We reiterate HOLD and our SEK64 target price.
