EURONAV: Clash – or reconciliation? - of the Titans EURN BB

The proposed merger of Euronav and Frontline combined with a revival of the Saverys-family triggered some of the better corporate drama at Euronav. We conclude that (1) merging is a ‘safe’ option, although upside seems limited and (2) that the situation might not be as binary as it seems. Hold (from Buy) and € 12 TP.
