We reiterate our BUY on Coca-Cola Icecek (CCI), with a new 12M price target (PT) of TRY 78. CCI’s operating performance has been under pressure since 3Q24, due to weak pricing terms and high base effects. After the weak 1Q25 results, due to the domestic operations, we anticipate milder pressure on the operating margins in 2Q25E. We foresee better operating results in 2H25E vs. 1H25, to be driven by the positive effects of the price increases in the domestic market starting in 2Q25, achieved over...

We believe that, after the price war-impacted 2024 and the seasonally-challenged 1Q25, Polish grocers should enjoy Easter-supported demand and a leap in the VAT hike in 2Q25E. In our view, the Polish consumer has matured, following the tough experience of the pandemic, and the inflation bubble that followed.
