Austevoll Seafood (Buy, TP: NOK123.00) - Peruvian comeback continues

We expect Q3 EBITDA of NOK1,362m, 4% above consensus of NOK1,306m (results due at 07:00 CET on 14 November). Our forecasts are NOK10m–30m below consensus EBITDA for Lerøy and Pelagia, while we are NOK19m–26m above for Austral, Foodcorp and Br. Birkeland. We have slightly changed our estimates, and reiterate our BUY and NOK123 target price.

Lower prices and costs

We remain positive on the sector, as we still find the valuation supportive at 2025–2026e P/E’s of 13-11x, with SalMar and Mowi as our top picks. For our 2025–2026 sector forecasts, we have increased global supply by 30–40kt on 3–4% growth, noting high regulatory risk in some regions, but have reduced our spot prices by EUR0.2/kg to EUR7.7–7.9/kg. We have also reduced production costs by NOK1.5–3.5/kg on prevailing feed input prices, and cut our 2025e EPS by 7% but raised 2026e by 6%.

Introduction to the salmon sector

This report provides an overview of the dynamics, companies, history, challenges and opportunities of the salmon farming industry.

Significant infrastructure investments made by the companies to solve these challenges have not yet yielded materially higher supply, leading to continued high salmon prices. Despite higher EBIT margins the sector ...

Lower tax proposed

The largest opposition party (Høyre) has launched a new draft proposal for its next parliamentary election programme. One of the suggestions is a lower and less bureaucratic resource tax. In the event of a 15% resource tax (down from 25%), we calculate the following preliminary 2025–2026e EPS impacts on the companies we cover: Grieg Seafood (15%), SalMar (12%), Lerøy Seafood (9%), Måsøval (8%), Mowi (7%), and Bakkafrost (0%). While this is only a proposal, we believe it will likely materially li...

Austevoll Seafood (Buy, TP: NOK123.00) - Peruvian comeback in Q2

Q2 operating EBITDA of NOK3,057m included a one-off gain of NOK1,265m from the sale of vessels in Br. Birkeland, and was 77% above our estimate and 86% above consensus (underlying 4% and 9% above, respectively). The underlying beat was driven by Austral on a strong comeback for its Peruvian operations. Following a solid Q2 and the stub valuation having come down, we find the shares attractively valued; we reiterate our BUY and have raised our target price to NOK123 (116) on our recently increase...
