Sistema: Systematic approach (BUY – initiation of coverage)

We initiate coverage of Sistema with a BUY recommendation and a RUB 48 price target (PT), which offers 37% upside potential to the current price. Despite posting a strong share price performance of +82% in the last 12 months (LTM), and 22% since the start of 2021, we still see more upside in this story, as the value of its private assets is not priced in fully, in our view. After the successful Ozon public placement, Sistema continues working on the value crystallisation of its assets, with the Segezha IPO planned in 2021E, subject to market conditions. At this price, we believe the market is mostly accounting for the public businesses and Segezha, and getting the private businesses for free.
