SODA 2Q18 - BETTER

TL418m NI is 25% higher than mkt cons while EBITDA of TL206m was 6% higher. Bottom-line beats our expectations mainly due to a deferred tax income of TL61mn stemming from the investment incentive for glass fiber investment. SODA’s revenues are FX-linked and US$ and EUR-denominated revenues account for around 85% of total revenues. Average US$/TL and EUR/TL rates increased by 22% and 32% YoY in 2Q18, respectively. SODA has a net long FX position of US$275m long and EUR93m. Despite the o/p of 77% ytd, we continue to like Soda due to its long FX position and defensive business fitting the current macro environment.
