SKAGEN Vekst
Statusrapport – august 2015
Hovedtrekk – august 2015
• SKAGEN Vekst* gjorde det litt svakere enn referanseindeksen i august. Fondet endte falt 4,4
prosent forrige måned, mens referanseindeksen var ned 3,4 prosent i den samme perioden.
• De beste bidragsyterne var Kia, Norwegian Air og Lundbeck. De vakeste bidragsyterne var
Carlsberg, AirAsia og CitiGroup.
• SKAGEN Vekst økte størrelsen på flere poster gjennom markedsuroen – spesielt gjaldt det poster
som var hardest rammen på grunn av sin eksponering mot vekstmarkedene. Blant disse finner en
Carlsberg, som ble tynget av svakere salgstall over sommeren. Vi brukte også august til å selge
oss ut av Korea Re på sterke kurser og etter at selskapet har vært med oss i lang tid.
• Siden 1 september i fjor har fondet steget 6,9 prosent, mens referanseindeksen er opp 26,6
prosent. Vi er selvsagt ikke fornøyd med dette. I ettertid skulle vi ha solgt oss raskere ut av Norge,
som er ned 3 prosent, inkludert utbytter.
• Vi vil også framover holde oss til SKAGENs investeringsfilosofi – den smale sti – og fortsette å
plukke selskaper som er feilpriset. Vi mener det fortsatt er den beste oppskriften på langsiktig og
vedvarende meravkastning.

• Med den økte usikkerheten i finansmarkedene benyttet vi anledningen
til å øke vår eierandel i det danske baserte globale bryggerikonsern
Carlsberg.
• Rapporten for andre kvartal sendte skjelvinger gjennom
finansmarkedene ettersom kostnadsforbedringen ikke viste seg og
aksjekursen falt.. Vi brukte muligheten til å øke posten.

Key earnings releases and corporate news, August 2015
Carlsberg
(4.4%)
Carlsberg (4.4% )
2Q report sends the stock down by 12% - What’s in the price and prospects?
Investment thesis update
Carlsberg, the Danish brewer, investment case core is; a stable earner with sub-par profitability to peers and
Carlsberg is on route to be improved. The 2Q report sent jitters thru investors (and joy thru short sellers), as the
cost improvement didn’t show up – on the contrary. New CEO joined in June 2015 and had almost no finger print
on the investor dialogue, so the CFO was sent out in town to explain things. Carlsberg has made things very
complex for themselves with 140 major brands and 500 sub-brands being sold in 3 regions and in more than 75
countries.
For every 100 DKK in revenue Carlsberg make, they spend 50 DKK on production costs, while peers only spend
40-45 DKK. This is the single most important driver of value for the company and boils down to getting the
production engineers and brewers work more efficiently.
Conclusion – the report is a stone in the shoe in the short term, but re-running all numbers we get to a target of
800-900 DKK, which is 60% up a couple of years out if management delivers on their ambitions.
Unpopular: yes - it’s shorted, few domestic institutions hold it and it’s perceived as ’Danish Ministry of Beer’.
Sell-siders are 81% sell/hold. Perfect for SKAGEN.
Under analyzed: no – 34 analysts – they see the obvious; a sub-par profitability company. They don’t look down
the road and see the improvement until they are certain it’s a reality, so its a case of mis-analyzed in terms of
time and potential profitability perspective.
Undervalued: yes – For 81bn DKK you get a 4-5bn DKK net cash stream that can grow to 7-8bn DKK in
2018/19. It’s a well-known business model (make good beer and sell it) so execution risk on the way forward
should be limited. Carlsberg has net debt of 34bn DKK (most of it from 2007 acquisition of Baltika in Russia), they
pay 1.4bn DKK in dividend, so it will take them 6-8 years to become debt free (which would again lift net cash
earnings by 1bn DKK per year), so good upside leverage.

Key earnings releases and corporate news, August 2015
KIA Motors
(3.9%)
KIA Motors (3,9%)
Weak trend continues, especially in China.
Investment case update
Negative: Although wrong to spin too much on one month, we can conclude that it will be difficult to reach
2015 guidance above 3m cars. However, stock hammered last 6 months and trades below P/E 6x 2015 so
some of this should be priced in. Expected improvement via new plant in Mexico next year not visible in stock
price. Measured on price/sales and price/book the stock is below 2008 lows, so not much positive forward
view.
Unpopular: No, 80% of analysts have buy (although conviction in some of these recommendations can be
discussed due to Korean broker practice).
Under researched: No, 45 analyst covering the stock including bulge bracket internationals, but almost all
have very short focus on company ability to produce earnings.
Undervalued: Yes, trades below P/e 6x which is cheap compared to global peers above 10x. Valuation gap
partly explained by the poor corporate governance .
Case update details
Kia July shipments: -11% Y/Y (Domestic + 14,8%, Export – 18,5%). China especially weak -33% but this offset
by Slovakia-plant which grew 30% . YTD shipments down 2,6%, so likely only sell 2.85m cars in 2015 vs
company guidance of 3.04m units
15
Key earnings releases and corporate news, August 2015
Lundin
Petroleum
(2.5%)
Lundin Petroleum (2.2%)
Disappointing Q2 report due to weak production.
Investment case
Negative, as they cut 2015 production guidance by 30%. The main reasons for the lowered production
forecast are delayed first oil at Edvard Grieg and revised Brynhild production. Going forward, we expect a
huge growth in production as well as cash flow due to Grieg and Sverdrup. They see upside in Grieg volumes
and they also see potential lower capex on Sverdrup. Dividend from next year with oil price above USD
65. Lundin is very much about Sverdrup, and we see our estimate of USD 9 per barrel as a conservative level
as this asset is very attractive to oil majors. Target unchanged at SEK 200.
Unpopular: Yes, 67% hold/sell
Under analyzed: No
Undervalued: Yes, as we see Sverdrup asset as very attractive to oil majors.
Facts
Q2 2015 production of 28.900 boepd. Alvheim underperformed (gas compressor) as well as Brynhild (FPSO
efficiency). 2015 production guidance down to 32.000 boepd. Assumes improving Brynhild performance, but
below original forecast. Edvard Grieg first oil late 2015, and exit rate for 2015 is 75.000 boepd after Grieg start
up.
16
Key earnings releases and corporate news, August 2015
AirAsia
(0.6%)
AirAsia (0.6%)
Recapitalization of affiliates still in focus
Investment case update
Malaysian AirAsia is one of the largest low-cost carriers in Asia in terms of fleet size and passengers carried.
The company owns interests in affiliates Thai AirAsia, Indonesia AirAsia and Philippines AirAsia. There are
currently several issues hanging over the company. Concerns center on the significant amount due from its
historically loss-making affiliates, the pricing of subleasing agreements between the parent and the affiliates
and a negative equity position in its Indonesian unit. The company reported a net income number of
MYR243M including several extraordinary items indicating a lower recurring profit picture. The company
benefitted from sharply lower oil prices in the quarter (down 18% Y/Y). One bright spot was the contribution
from Thai AirAsia which reversed its loss from last year. However, net loss increased in the Indonesian unit but
was reduced somewhat at the Philippine unit. The company needs to urgently address the issues around its
affiliates, and management presented a plan to recapitalize its Indonesian unit via convertible stock/bonds and
a possible equity injection in the Philippines unit. Recent ringgit moves is a cause of a concern, since debt is
outstanding mostly in USD.
Unpopular: It is a strong understatement that this stock is unpopular at this stage. The highlighted concerns
with potential accounting and solvency issues have produced a sharp sell-off in the shares. However, most
analysts are sticking to its buy rating (70%).
Under analyzed: 18 analysts are covering the name and most seem convinced the company will be able to
recapitalize its affiliates and successfully address issues.
Undervalued: The uncertainties are many, but we believe the equity is potentially trading below its NAV even
if we adjust for the outstanding balances with its affiliates. On headline earnings numbers, the equity is trading
at less than 5x forward EPS numbers, but this is clearly less relevant with ongoing solvency issues.
Fact
Total revenues were more or less unchanged from a year ago for the quarter. On the cost side there was a
sharp fall in aircraft fuel expenses (-18% Y/Y) as the company is largely unhedged benefitting from lower
energy prices. A large negative swing in foreign FX from last year, as the MYR weakened significantly, helped
bringing down net income to MYR243M (367M a year ago). Load factor was maintained at 80%. Passengers
carried increased 7% Y/Y.

The largest companies in SKAGEN Vekst
Samsung Electronics, the Korean electronics group, has enjoyed very solid growth in consumer
electronics, especially smartphones. Pole position in global semiconductor market. Cash
generation is very strong and the company has historically wisely invested in new business areas
– solar power and healthcare are on the roadmap for the future.
Continental AG produces tyres for cars and trucks and makes auto technology such as power
trains, safety systems and automated drive systems. The replacement cycle for tyres is
becoming stretched in some markets, so near-term earnings look promising. In the longer-term
Continental’s pole position in global auto technology provides a good backdrop for substantial
growth.
Norwegian Air Shuttle is the leading Nordic-based low cost airline, which in 2014 flew 24m
.passengers. The fleet of airliners and the route network are growing rapidly proving the concept
of Norwegian local low cost airline, to Nordic, to European and to Global reach.
