We have upgraded Elm to BUY (from Hold), with an updated 12M price target (PT) of SAR 1,405, offering upside potential of 21% from the current price. Our upgrade is driven primarily by the value-accretive Thiqah acquisition and the company’s stronger-than-expected organic revenue growth over 9M24. We continue to view Elm as Saudi Arabia’s digital champion and a key enabler of the Saudi Vision 2030 digital initiatives. The stock is trading at a 35.7x 2026E P/E, on our estimates, representing a 51...

We rate PZU a BUY, with a new 12M price target (PT) of PLN 64.9/share, offering 42% upside potential. PZU is one of our top picks among the regional financials. We see its discounted valuation (2025E P/E of 6.8x and P/BV of 1.2x), and its status as one of the most reliable dividend payers in the region (9%+ yield next year), as attractive. This is in combination with positive fundamentals, including improving EPS momentum (our 2025E EPS is +18% yoy) and a medium-term performance supported by the...

PZU has published its 2025-27E strategic outlook. The key takeaway for shareholders, in our view, is the target of at least PLN 6.2bn of net profit in 2027E, with a minimum 2027E DPS of PLN 4.5. In the strategic presentation, significant focus has been put on revenue growth engines, and each of the key revenue pillars is explained separately. Also important for the market is that the insurer may sell its c.32% stake in Alior Bank to its other subsidiary, Bank Pekao, in 1H25E. The banks are to in...

We maintain our BUY rating on Akcansa, with an updated 12M price target (PT) of TRY 216.2, which offers 39% upside vs. the current price. Although we have reduced our PT by 9%, mostly as a result of 2024E’s higher-than-expected inflationary environment, we remain positive on the name and believe that its solid business model, together with supportive domestic demand and slowing inflation, should support its business performance in 2025E and 2026E. The company is trading at 5.4x 2025E EV/EBITDA, ...
