LSR Group - Strong 1Q19 Driven by ZILART

LSR Group has published 1Q19 operating results. The numbers were good, with a 22% y-o-y increase in new contract sales on the back of a 20% y-o-y rise in the average sales price. Growth in 1Q19 was mainly driven by the Moscow area, with a very strong performance from LSR's flagship project, ZILART, the growing prominence of which should support the average price and margins going forward. In addition, the Construction Ministry is expected to publish a bill this week outlining the criteria for selling apartments under the old model, i.e. without escrow accounts, which should be an additional positive for the company. We reiterate our BUY rating on the stock and $2.50 target price.
