Lamda's 3Q24 was largely in line with our expectations. We are seeing a continuing strong performance from the existing malls and marinas, while the recently-announced land sales at the Ellinikon should start to pull the NAV upwards over the coming months. The visible progress in the development of the Ellinikon, coupled with the NAV uplift ahead, should help the momentum of the stock, in our view. The key risks we see are related to potential delays and construction cost overruns, as well as de...

We reiterate our BUY rating on Lamda Development (Lamda), increasing our 12M price target (PT) to EUR 9.0/share. Lamda remains our favourite play on Greek real estate. The tenant sales and rents continue to grow in tandem in its portfolio of four well-known shopping centres. The likely ECB rate easing ahead could make it easier for Lamda to sell a stake in the MallCo via an IPO, perhaps at some point in 2025E, a potential boost for sentiment. The fully-occupied marinas also generate good returns...
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. In addition to the cash inflows, the deal should also front-load the P&L recognition of the profits from the Ellinikon, driving c.EUR 82m of a...

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...

There was a broadly similar performance in Hungary, Czechia and Romania (+ 2.9%, 2.7% and 2.1% mom in EUR terms, respectively).

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.

Lamda – the largest and most liquid listed play on the Greek real estate – reported its 1Q24 results yesterday (12 June), after the market closed. Its portfolio of four malls continues to generate robust rental growth, underpinned by the turnover growth of its tenants. The marinas are also performing very well. At the Ellinikon, the apartments are selling quickly, with prices that appear ahead of the original budgeted levels. Around half of the first-phase residential apartments have been sold a...
