I’m adding Elkem to the Gullinbursti Dividend Portfolio today at NOK 19.66.

This move is driven by the compelling risk/reward tied to the ongoing strategic review of its Silicones division, which is now classified as discontinued operations.

If Elkem executes a full divestment at a valuation close to SpareBank 1’s NOK 10bn base case, it could unlock a special dividend of approximately NOK 7/share – more than one-third of the current share price – while leaving the remaining business trading at a dividend-adjusted P/E of ~6x.
