Upgrading to Buy on valuation and potential domestic tailwinds: We upgrade Kardemir to Buy (from Hold) and raise our 12-month target price to TL40.4/share (from TL34.5), implying 49% upside from the current share price. The change reflects (1) a modestly higher FY26–27 EBITDA/tonne trajectory, (2) slightly higher FY26–27 volume assumptions as partial debottlenecking is expected around March 2026, and (3) updated macro inputs. Despite the slight recovery in share price over the past one month, 5%...
Resource confirmation & scope: The UMREK-compliant disclosure confirms that Ermaden’s Alacahan project hosts a 14.9 Mt inferred resource grading 0.89 g/t Au, translating to 424 Koz contained gold. This is closely aligned with our May 2025 base-case assumption of a 15 Mt deposit grading 1.0 g/t Au (~480 Koz), a 12% delta in contained ounces. The grade is marginally lower but within the range expected for heap-leach–amenable oxide systems. Drilling coverage of 45 hectares—about 0.8% of the 5,804 h...

Conservative view on steel operations mainly due to weak FCF outlook, placing gold mining prospect into perspective, maintain Hold: We have updated our valuation (blended target 6.0x FY25E–FY26E EV/EBITDA (net debt adjusted)) and estimates for Erdemir, raising our 12M target price by 6% to TL30.1/share.

Thus, we reiterate our Hold rating for the shares (downgraded from Buy on January 2022, underperformed the BIST-100 by 64% since). Regarding near term outlook, we are constructive of improvement in Erdemir’s sales volume in FY24 (estimate of 13% y...
