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...
Lamda has announced the sale of another tranche of land plots within the Ellinikon. It is selling land with a buildable area of up to 86k sqm, with uses ranging from residential (30k sqm), office space (37k sqm) and educational institutions (20k sqm). The selling price of EUR 120m exceeds the current book value of the plots (EUR 37m) significantly, again.

The tenant sales performance at the existing malls remains solid (up 6% vs. 1H23), and the progress on selling down the Little Athens apartments has been fast, with prices ahead of the budgeted levels. We also understand that the leasing demand for the two Ellinikon malls has been very strong, and we see some upside for the rent levels we were budgeting for in our initiation on the stock (June 2023). With the rates coming down, this should have a positive impact on the future valuations of the E...

Benchmark refining margins fell by USD 1.7/bbl in August to USD 8.6/bbl, continuing the trend of recent months. Falling petrol cracks were the main driver, although crude differentials are still a weakness. Petrochemicals margins have benefited from lower oil prices, but remain well below average levels.

Lamda has closed the sale of five Ellinikon land plots for EUR 106m. We see the sale (which was flagged in advance, and which has been closed broadly in line on both timing and price) as positive. The transaction front loads P&L gains (c.EUR 76m, or EUR 0.4/share, a 5% NAV uplift), as well as cash inflows from the Ellinikon (c.EUR 106m, EUR 0.6/share, or c.8% of the company's market cap), and de-risks the project.
