Ferro
We maintain our ST relative rating at Overweight and keep overweighing Ferro’s equities in our monthly portfolio. The Company’s 1Q20 financial results were robust and we believe 2Q20 performance will be good as well. Though in April the demand for the Company’s products/goods fell due to the COVID-19 fallout, in May and June it started to recover. We expect Ferro to pursue an acquisition in 2H20 which, given the Company’s strong position on the existing markets, should trigger the Group’s further development. When the acquisition does not materialize, next year’s dividend payment is likely to be visibly higher.
We upgrade our LT fundamental recommendation to Buy from Hold on the back of the more favorable market environment than we assumed previously albeit we would like to stress that our financial forecasts are encumbered with significant risk.
