We maintain our BUY on Wirtualna Polska (WPL), and cut our 12M price target (PT) to PLN 129.5/share (from PLN 133.2), implying c.51% upside. WPL’s share price has underperformed the market in the LTM, and we believe that the weak performance of the media segment is the main reason. The strong 4Q24 results, however, are proof, in our view, that the initiatives implemented by management to repair the segment have been effective. Assuming a media segment stabilisation and a solid outlook for the tr...

Average Brent crude oil prices were down by USD 3.5/bbl in March vs. the previous month, and OPEC+ promised to mitigate increased supply with compensatory cuts from countries above quota. The WOOD benchmark was down USD 4.0/bbl, to USD 8.0/bbl, the lowest margin since September 2024. Only fuel oil cracks improved, while crude differentials worsened. Petrochemicals continue to disappoint.
We have downgraded our rating on Magyar Telekom (MTELEKOM) to HOLD (from Buy) and raised our price target (PT) to HUF 1,635/share (from HUF 1,432), implying 4% upside potential. After keeping our Buy for four years (with a 289% share price rally in that time), we close our call. We continue to appreciate MTELEKOM’s growth outlook (a 7.0% 2024-27E EBITDA CAGR) and generous investor remuneration (a c.10% dividend yield in 2025-26E), but see the current discount on its valuation vs. its peers as ju...
