Schibsted (Sell, TP: NOK290.00) - Muted growth continues

The Q1 results were above expectations on lower-than-expected costs, while growth continued to be muted. We reiterate our SELL as we continue to find the valuation high relative to growth prospects, but have raised our target price to NOK290 (280) on increased estimates.

Schibsted (Sell, TP: NOK280.00) - Prisjakt sold at low price

Schibsted has signed an agreement to sell Prisjakt to eEquity for SEK500m. We find the price low, at c40% of our SOTP value, but find it positive that the company continues to simplify its portfolio to focus on Nordic Marketplaces. We expect a slightly negative share price reaction.
