Alrosa - 1Q19 IFRS In Line on EBITDA, FCF Stronger

Alrosa reported today its 1Q19 IFRS results. EBITDA came generally in line with the consensus estimates and somewhat outperformed our forecasts. Leveraged FCF generation surprised to the upside thanks to a working capital release and fairly low capex (although capex should likely to pick up later this year). At the current USD/RUB rate, Alrosa is trading at a strong 12% FCF yield. That said, we retain our HOLD recommendation due to the structural risks associated with the development of the lab-grown diamond market.
