   Antonov shares rose sharply on the 12th August after Credit Lyonnais Price 28th August 1998: 96p Price 3rd August 1998: 77.5p Antonov shares rose sharply on the 12th August after Credit Lyonnais Securities issued its first analysis of ATV and decided that the company is trading at a discount to its fair value in the market. Credit Lyonnais should know the company's prospects well, as they are the Nominated Advisor and Nominated Broker to the company. This appointment was made on the 4th August 1998, so Credit Lyonnais did not waste their time in bringing out their report. Apparently Credit Lyonnais analyst David Buxton has calculated that, using a discounted cash flow model, Antonov's market capitalisation should be £230 million, and they have set a target price of 300p. Now, I have not seen the analysis done by this analyst, but I imagine that it has made significant assumptions about the future sales of Antonov's products, and he has forecast earnings per share of 5.6p in 2000, equivalent to a pre-tax profit of £8.4 million. He is forecasting losses for 1998 and a small profit for 1999, so the improvement in 2000 is forecast to be significant and dramatic.
