Yandex's results came in very strong across the board, beating the consensus by 2% on revenues and 8% on EBITDA. The biggest takeaway was the taxi segment, where revenues grew by 117% y-o-y to R8.8 bln from the strong base and record-high growth in 2Q18 (426%). Taxi showed its first positive EBITDA, of R423 mln, which already means a healthy margin of 4.8%. We reiterate our BUY rating and target price of $51.00 per share.
