Vitrolife (Sell, TP: SEK150.00) - Covid-19 impact to continue

Vitrolife said with its Q2 report that the pandemic would have a negative impact on H2. Since then, the second wave of infections has come and more and more countries are returning to lockdown mode. We saw earlier this year the Chinese market was recovering and this is most likely still the case, but we are concerned the rest of the world will continue to suffer from below-normal levels of IVF procedures. The Q3 results are due at 08:00 CET on 6 November. We reiterate our SELL and SEK150 target price.
