Star Bulk (Buy, TP: USD24.30) - Set for double-digit dividend yield
We have made only minor changes to our estimates following the Q1 results – for the most part to incorporate slightly higher vessel opex and the updated dividend policy, which has reduced the minimum cash balance per vessel for 2021. We reiterate our BUY but have lifted our target price to USD24.3 (21.1), as we now calculate a double-digit dividend yield throughout our forecast period.Star Bulk Carriers is an international company providing worldwide transportation solutions in the drybulk sector through its vessels-owning subsidiaries for a range of customers of major and minor bulk cargoes including iron ore, coal, grain, cement, fertilizer, along worldwide shipping routes.
