MOL - Model Update – Controlled Phase Out Of Russian Oil Can Be Manageable

We set our ex-dividend 2026 year-end target price at HUF 3,660, implying an 8.2% total return
including our estimated HUF 300 dividend to be paid after the 2025 financial year. Accordingly,
we revise our recommendation from Accumulate to Neutral, reflecting current market conditions,
as well as company-specific event risks. Russian crude availability remains the most influential
factor in our view. Our previous base case assumed gradual normalization, with Russian oil
remaining available. Our new base case assumes a managed phase-out of Russian crude by
2028 with partial cost pass-through to customers, which appears far less detrimental than the
previously feared scenario of an immediate loss of Russian supply without the ability to pass
through higher costs—although such an outcome cannot be fully excluded. Depending on the
outcome related to Russian oil supply, our target price ranges between HUF 2,770–3,880,
suggesting limited upside and relatively greater downside risk.
