Scatec (Sell, TP: NOK195.00) - Needs to show better cash flow

We are 2% below consensus Q4 EBITDA (ex. one offs), while our proportionate cash flow to equity of USD88m is 17% below consensus. A weak Q3 was overshadowed by M&A, however, as we do not believe the company can pull off large M&A transactions every quarter, it needs to show better underlying performance. We reiterate our SELL and NOK195 target price.
