We maintain our BUY on LPP, with a new 12M price target (PT) of PLN 27,522/share (up from PLN 20,842/share). After a turbulent year, the company’s share price has reached our previous PT eventually, but we still see another 35% upside potential. First, with the remaining exposure to its former Russian business written down, we believe that LPP has closed that chapter of its history for good. Secondly, we underline that management has moderated its rollout plans to a still ambitious, but realisti...

Somewhat disappointing H1, but H2 set to be better – Jumbo’s H1 results were rather disappointing, with adj. EBITDA up just 7% yoy but shaping c5% below our estimates. The disappointment stemmed from a 1.4pps yoy contraction in gross margins, contrary to our expectation for expansion and out of sync with the appreciation of the EUR vs the USD. This led to net profit of €117m, -4% yoy, or -8% vs our number, with the optics of reported numbers affected further by the tough comp due to last year’s ...

We think that the robust outlook for Polish economic growth should offset mid-term uncertainty on fiscal policy and political risk. We have made a slight upward revision to our forecasts for pre-tax profit (by 1% to 4%) but lowered our EPS forecasts by 21% for 2026e and 4% for 2027e. After factoring in the full impact of the new tax bill, we have adjusted our target prices but remain cautiously positive on Polish banks. We favour mBank (upgrade to Outperform) for its upbeat long-term outlook and...
