We have updated and rolled forward our model on Patria Bank (PBK), maintaining our HOLD rating, but with a lower 12M price target (PT) of RON 0.090/share (9.3% upside), from RON 0.095/share. Although 2024E seems to have proven to be a more successful year than we expected previously, we believe it might be hard to replicate that success, and that 2025E might bring some bottom-line and profitability contraction, due to: 1) the still challenged macro backdrop, fuelled by fiscal consolidation, whic...

In this report, we maintain our BUY rating on Huuuge Games (HUG), with our 12M price target (PT) cut to PLN 24.8 (vs. PLN 34.6). For Ten Square Games (TEN), we reiterate our HOLD rating, having cut our 12M PT to PLN 83 (vs. PLN 100). On our revised down forecasts, both HUG and TEN offer significantly weaker earnings outlooks vs. their foreign peers (a 3Y adjusted EBITDA CAGR of -17% for HUG and -8% for TEN, vs. +6% for their peers, on the consensus). We mostly blame the low diversification (two ...

Turkish Airlines' 3Q24 results came in broadly in line with our estimates, but the numbers were a 4-5% beat vs. the consensus on the EBITDA and EBIT. The revenue was up 5% yoy, mirroring the capacity growth, as strong cargo yields offset slight weakness in the passenger yield (which was down 2.2% yoy, or 0.5% if excluding the currency impacts). The ex-fuel cask grew in the high teens, driven mainly by high personnel costs, as expected. The bottom line was stronger than both we and the consensus ...

EME Equity Market – October 2024 A red October for the EME indices, only Czechia in positive territory. The MSCI EM Europe Index declined by 6.0% in EUR terms and 8.4% in USD terms in October. The Czech PX index was the only one spared, adding 1.3% mom in EUR terms. Türkiye was battered the most, with the Turkish ISE30 declining by 7.3% mom in EUR terms, followed closely by the Polish WIG20 (-6.7% mom in EUR terms). Greece fell 4.8% mom in EUR terms, while the Hungarian BUX index lost 2.7% mom i...
HEADLINES: • Bank Millennium: ambitious, but achievable, 2025-28E strategy implies a return to growth and more of a focus on the corporate segment POSITIVE • Bank Millennium: 3Q24 results in line; key focus on 2025-28E strategic update • Santander Bank Polska: posts solid 3Q24 profits, as NII peaks and FX mortgage saga costs are very low for the quarter • OMV: 3Q24 results – CCS EBIT in line with the consensus NEUTRAL • OMV Petrom: 3Q24 results in line with consensus NEUTRAL • Budimex: key takea...
Millennium has published its 2025-28E strategic targets, with a 2028E reported ROE of a minimum of 18%. Our current explicit forecasts for Bank Millennium end in 2026E and imply a headline ROE of 15.5% and an adjusted ROE of 20.7%, with headline 2026E net profit of PLN 1.44bn and adjusted net profit of PLN 1.94bn. It is hard to compare our current forecasts with the bank’s targets, which reach out two years ahead, but we believe that our 2024-26E forecasts lay out a sensible path to achieving a ...

The combination of continued capacity recovery and a weak macro backdrop is putting pressure on passenger yields. The more favourable fuel prices (and, for Turkish Airlines (THYAO), higher cargo yields) only partially compensate for cost pressures caused by the GTF engine issue, higher personnel costs, and general cost inflation. This means that margins are beginning to compress from the often very high levels we have seen in the past two-to-three years. Among the four airlines that we cover, we...
