WOOD Flash – 4iG: 1Q24 review – solid operating results, with 31% yoy pro-forma EBITDA growth; net loss reported due to FX and interest

This morning (31 May), 4iG reported its 1Q24 results, with solid yoy expansions in sales, to HUF 157.7bn (up 37% yoy, in line with our estimate) and the EBITDA, to HUF 54.1bn (up 49% yoy, in line with our estimate), and a net loss of HUF 16.7bn (vs. HUF 0.1bn in net profit in 1Q23 and our PLN 15.1m net loss forecast). We see the results as neutral, as they are broadly in line with our expectations (we note that the company is in the middle of a business transformation, which is causing a major distortion in the quarterly financials and making forecasting more difficult).
