Namely Valamar noted Imperial acquisition contributed 9.6 p.p. to the above mentioned growth rate. Reported EBITDA grew by 17.6% YoY while adjusted EBITDA is up by 18.9% according to Valamar.

All in all results are roughly in-line with our expectations while we believe positive trends should continue in 2018 season. More visibility for 2018 will be given by yearend. Our stance and view remains unchanged, price target HRK 47 and recommendation hold.
