This week, Equinor reported a preliminary internal gas price of USD12.05/mmbtu for Q4, slightly below Bloomberg consensus and 10% below the TTF day-ahead for the quarter. It also announced that the ongoing outage at its Hammerfest LNG facility was being extended by 10 days to 19 January. In other news, BlueNord reported preliminary net production of 28.9kboed for December, and 26.0kboed for Q4, slightly below our estimate of 29.0kboed.
The sector has traded down in recent weeks on rising long-term SWAP rates, resulting in multiples contraction, but we do not expect significant changes to consensus 2025–2026e FFO/EPS. This week, Corem issued a Q4 net letting-related profit warning, confirming the terminated lease in Stockholm’s Kista district, and Sveafastigheter announced a CFO change. The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.42% for 2024e and 5.10% for 2025e.
Our focus for the Q4 results will be on orders, clean EBIT, and 2025 guidance. Our Q4e and 2025e orders are close to post-Q3 consensus, and clean EBIT is slightly below. We reiterate our HOLD but have cut our target price to EUR50 (54) on our adjusted DCF. The share price offers a neutral risk/reward, in our view.

In Q4, we forecast similar demand and market dynamics to Q3, with consumer downtrading, elevated promotional activity, a negative mix, price pressure, and weak consumer demand weighing on sales and EBIT. We expect a sales decline of 1.6% YOY (organic growth of 2.6%) and an adj. EBIT margin of 3.2%. We reiterate our HOLD, but have cut our target price to SEK92 (94).
This week, Public Property Invest and Cibus Nordic Real Estate (Cibus) announced acquisitions, while Entra closed an asset sale 13% above book value.

The weighted-average implied EBITDA yields on the stocks we cover are 4.48% for 2024e and 5.06% for 2025e.
This week, BlueNord announced that plateau production at Tyra is now expected to be delayed by around three weeks due to adverse weather, shifting the timeline to the second half of January 2025.

In other news, the Arkenstone drilling campaign has been temporarily suspended after encountering shallow gas. Also, DNO and OKEA have agreed to swap 10% interests in the Mistral and Horatio prospects.
