WOOD Flash – Etalon: 2020 valuation report reflects positive price momentum, implies margin expansion ahead

Etalon published its 2020 year-end valuation update yesterday (2 March). The report, by Colliers, contains the updated estimates for the open market value and achievable sales prices for Etalon’s portfolio. The project-by-project data included in this report form the backbone of our Etalon model, and we believe that a number of other sell-side analysts covering Etalon use the granular data from this report as a basis for their forecasts as well. In this flash note, we look at how the YE20E estimates of sales prices and construction capex compare to those reported a year ago. The valuation report confirms the positive pricing dynamics that we saw in Russian residential throughout last year. This should be supportive for margins, in our view.
