Volvo (Hold, TP: SEK245.00) - A peak year in the making
We are 15% above Q2e adj. EBIT consensus, expecting a still-strong mix and positive effects from improving prices versus costs for Trucks and VCE. However, we are 15% below consensus on Trucks order intake, as the company remains cautious in opening its 2024 build slots and 2023 is nearly sold out. We reiterate our HOLD but have raised our target price to SEK245 (230), having increased our adj. EBIT by 10% for 2023e (FX and margin) and 4–6% for 2024–2025e (FX).Volvo is a manufacturer of trucks, buses, construction equipment and marine and industrial engines.
