Time for Special Steels to shine

We believe SSAB’s growing share of niche steel deliveries combined with improved pricing discipline in Europe’s steel industry will support 2018–2019 earnings. We expect a clear pick-up for the Special Steels division in 2018, as production stoppages have meant SSAB has not benefited from improved end-user demand YTD. Our EBITDA estimates are above consensus by 9% for 2018 and 1% for 2019. We initiate coverage with a BUY recommendation and SEK47 target price.
