MOL raised to BUY, TP HUF 3,300 - Stronger earnings generation despite HUF 500 bn windfall tax

-Despite governments decision to overtax MOLs windfall profits, the company should strongly benefit from the import of cheaper crude from Russia, generating 2x higher refining EBITDA in 2022e
-Higher oil and gas prices should offset the impact of lower oil and gas output resulted from the UK assets divestments and natural decline
-Divestments of upstream assets in the UK to generate >USD 600 mn positive one-offs in 2022e (i.e. reduction of field abandonment provisions, transaction gains)
-We expect the management to revise upwards its 2022e EBITDA guidance, which currently stands at USD 2.8 bn vs market consensus of ca. USD 4.0 bn
