Severstal - IFRS Results for 2Q19 In Line Across the Board

Severstal has reported 2Q19 IFRS results that were in line with our and consensus estimates across the board. The BoD proposed a quarterly dividend of around $350 mln yesterday (2.5% yield), for a payout of around 130% of FCF, in line with the company's policy to distribute more than 100% during the 2019-22 capex cycle. At current spot commodity prices and USD/RUB, Severstal is trading at a 2020E dividend yield of around 11.5% and LFCF yield of around 6.5%, slightly more attractive than peers on dividend yield. We reiterate our HOLD recommendation.
