Magyar Telekom - Despite Windfall Tax Q2 EBIT Is Flat y-o-y

  • MTEL posted extremely strong Q2 figures, all of the lines came above the consensus. EBITDA and Profit arrived at HUF 58 bn (-2% y-o-y) (vs. cons HUF 53bn) and HUF 10.6 bn (-22% y-o-y) (vs. cons HUF 9 bn) respectively. Excluding windfall tax charge (HUF 12.4bn), profit would have arrived ta HUF 22bn (EPS HUF 22).

 

MTEL’s 12M rolling profit reached HUF 65.5 bn, (cleaned from windfall profit would be HUF 76.5bn).If we subtract the remaining HUF 12.4bn extra tax from 12m rolling profit, which could be a good proxy for FY annual profit should arrive to HUF 52 bn above our FY profit forecast of 44bn (+18%); (6m profit was 29bn). This would imply a shareholder remuneration of 31 – 42 per share implying a yield of 10% – 13.4% and a premium yield of (above 10yr HU gov. bond) 2%– 5.4% (vs. historical avg. of 2.4%).
