Telenor Faces Weaker Momentum, But It Has Options -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
Yesterday

0713 GMT - Telenor is facing a period of weaker momentum, but it has options, Berenberg analysts write. Nordic Ebitda growth halved in the first quarter on one-offs and as competition hit in Denmark and Finland, the bank says. Momentum is set to weaken further in the second quarter and third and fourth quarter growth could also remain sluggish, it adds. At the same time Asian trends are still mixed. However, Telenor's balance-sheet strength gives it options, which could include the purchase of CK Hutchison's Tre in Sweden and Denmark, the bank adds. "We wait to see whether M&A will be launched." Berenberg lifts its price target on the stock to 158 Norwegian kroner from 138 kroner and keeps at hold. Shares rise 0.5% to 149.60 kroner. (dominic.chopping@wsj.com)
