Skanska (Hold, TP: SEK176.00) - Few signs of improvement

Following the profit warning, expectations were low. Q4 EBIT beat expectations, but was low in nominal terms. The new CEO repeated that profitability performance is too low, but beyond scaling down some non-profitable segments gave few direct measures on how to improve operations. With Q1 as a low season, we see few near-term triggers, and with weakening Norwegian and Swedish residential markets, we expect no EPS growth. We repeat HOLD and our SEK176 target price.
