Smartoptics (Buy, TP: NOK21.00) - Q3 a relief, but tough comparables set to continue weighing on growth

While Smartoptics’ Q3 results were below our estimates, we found the decent underlying growth in the broad customer base and cost discipline a source of relief given the challenging macroeconomic backdrop. There will probably be at least one more quarter with tough comparables weighing on growth before metrics start to improve. We reiterate our BUY but have lowered our 2023-2025 estimates and our target price to NOK21.
