We maintain our BUY on LPP, with a new 12M price target (PT) of PLN 27,522/share (up from PLN 20,842/share). After a turbulent year, the company’s share price has reached our previous PT eventually, but we still see another 35% upside potential. First, with the remaining exposure to its former Russian business written down, we believe that LPP has closed that chapter of its history for good. Secondly, we underline that management has moderated its rollout plans to a still ambitious, but realisti...

The macro backdrop entering 2026E remains broadly supportive for high-dividend strategies across Emerging Europe and the frontier markets, but the opportunity set has clearly narrowed. After a year of sharp repricing across the WOOD universe, the high dividend conditions of 2024-25 have largely disappeared, as a result of many sectors rerating materially. As a result, high-dividend exposure is no longer a broad regional trade: the most compelling opportunities are now concentrated. However, the ...

We think that the robust outlook for Polish economic growth should offset mid-term uncertainty on fiscal policy and political risk. We have made a slight upward revision to our forecasts for pre-tax profit (by 1% to 4%) but lowered our EPS forecasts by 21% for 2026e and 4% for 2027e. After factoring in the full impact of the new tax bill, we have adjusted our target prices but remain cautiously positive on Polish banks. We favour mBank (upgrade to Outperform) for its upbeat long-term outlook and...
