Eurocash confirmed at BUY, TP PLN 23.5 - Looking forward to news from the retail front

Ahead of 4Q 19e reporting on March 13 we update our forecasts for Eurocash. We tweak our TP to PLN 23.5 from PLN 24.0 and confirm our BUY recommendation. In 4Q 19 Eurocash focused on the integration of Mila and the roll-out of the common IT platform in retail. We expect the visibility for prospects of the retail business to improve significantly in 2020e, once it becomes clearer what a fully integrated retail chain under the DC brand can achieve and what are the next steps for potential network expansion. We note the relative defensive nature of Eurocashs staple business in light of the Covid-19 topic.
