The weekly navigator

From the past week, we highlight: 1) Investor bought shares in EQT for the first time since its 2019 IPO; 2) ahead of Kinnevik’s 12 May AGM, we highlight the return of Cristina Stenbeck as chair and the potential for share buybacks at a 40% discount to NAV; and 3) Lundbergs bought shares in its existing holdings for SEK512m.

From the past week, we highlight: 1) we lowered our target price for Latour to SEK300 (340) following a Q1 report with a slight NAV decline but strong organic order intake growth; 2) Investor bought 6.3m Ericsson shares, and we highlight its successful top-ups in the name; 3) insider purchases at Investor are in our view a signal to look beyond a relatively small discount to NAV; and 4) Flat Capital reported Q1 NAV down 1% QOQ.

Industrivärden (Hold, TP: SEK345.00) - Caught in a market headwind

We remain on the sidelines following Industrivärden’s Q1 report, reiterating our HOLD but with a lowered SEK345 (400) target price. While this reflects forward NAV growth of 26%, we have raised our target discount to NAV to 20% to account for the current macro situation (potential near-term volatility in its portfolio companies’ earnings outlook). We see clearer near-term value in its main owner Lundbergs given its defensive portfolio characteristics, a lower portfolio-weighted US exposure and a...
