Vestas Wind Systems (Hold, TP: DKK460.00) - The new reality

Up until now, Vestas’s profitability has not been hurt by auction-based pricing. This has now changed. We have lowered our 2017–2019e EBIT by 10–19%, implying zero earnings growth over the next three years. Due to no earnings visibility, we have applied a 20% discount to our justified EV/EBIT multiple and consequently have downgraded our recommendation to HOLD. Our new target price is DKK460 (680).
