>Continued solid margin expansion - Allegro reported relatively strong Q2 24 results, with overall results roughly reflecting the quarterly guidance. Active Buyers and GMV/Active Buyer metrics continue to increase, contributing to solid yoy group revenue growth (+24% yoy for the Polish operations). Advertising revenue in Poland showed another quarter of good growth (+30% yoy), and is expected to continue to be supportive of group revenues. Overall, Q2 24 revenues were...
HEADLINES: • Colt CZ Group SE: full metal jacket (stays BUY) • Pegasus Airlines: another good year (stays HOLD) • Allegro: 2Q24 above expectations, but growth deceleration guided for 3Q24E NEUTRAL • Echo Investment: 2Q24 ahead of PAP consensus expectations • Auto Partner: key takeaways from the 2Q24 earnings call NEUTRAL • Halyk Bank: announces programme to buy back up to USD 50m of its GDRs
We have increased our 12M price target (PT) for Pegasus to TRY 248/share, while maintaining our HOLD rating. After two years of stellar margins, 2024E is shaping up to be another good year. We expect Pegasus to fly 13% more ASK, while keeping its RASK flat yoy (lower fares offset by a higher load factor). Pegasus remains one of the lowest unit cost producers globally. Its efficiency is underpinned by its modern neo fleet, which is not affected by the P&W GTF engine issue – an important competiti...
Following the recent completion of Colt CZ’s acquisition of legacy Czech ammunition producer Sellier & Bellot (S&B) and after the company’s 1H24 results (reported on 13 September), we have revised our earnings forecasts for Colt CZ and updated our model. As result of the substantial contribution of the S&B acquisition (on a pro-forma FY24E basis, Colt CZ’s guidance suggests that, if S&B were to be consolidated for the entire year, it would add 41%/52% to Colt CZ’s 2024E revenue and EBITDA), we h...

We maintain our BUY rating on Inter Cars (CAR) and our HOLD on Auto Partner (APR). The 2024E outlook now seems more challenging for auto parts distributors than we assumed in our February update. We believe, however, that this has already been priced in by the market. The key differences in the 2024E outlook between APR and CAR were reflected in the 1Q24 yoy SG&A dynamics, with CAR weathering the cost pressure better, in our view. Despite the short-term challenges, we believe the long-term funda...

Pegasus has managed to reverse the negative RASK trend of the first quarter, delivering a 4% higher RASK yoy in 2Q24. This was driven by a materially stronger load factor yoy, as well as a good ancillary take up, which offset the pressure on passenger yields (the international passenger yield was down to EUR 68/pax, from EUR 75/pax in 2Q23). The company has maintained its guidance of a flat RASK, a mid-to-high single digit higher ex-fuel CASK (CASKx), and a 28-30% EBITDA margin for 2024E. Follow...
