** Stifel initiates coverage on Norwegian technology group Norbit NORBT.OL with a "buy" rating, citing its successful evolution into a high-margin, systems-level partner
** Norbit is transforming into a systems partner, increasing its share of customer workflows in areas like seabed intelligence, Stifel says
** Norbit's three synergistic divisions create an "(uncommon) multi-engine compounder with non-correlated growth, it says, expecting the group's revenue trajectory to near NOK 4 billion ($417.11 million) or more by 2030
** Strong fundamentals, including low leverage and rising FCF, give options for M&A and increased shareholder payouts, it adds
** Stifel sets PT at NOK 220
