Kalekim announced its 2Q25 IAS 29 results yesterday (13 August), after the market closed, reporting net earnings of TRY 325m, +37% yoy, in its inflation-adjusted income statement. The reported figures were aligned with our estimates from the top line to the bottom line. Despite the challenging operating landscape, Kalekim managed to improve its gross margin and opex/sales ratio, thanks to the operating leverage effect.

We have downgraded Lion Finance Group (BGEO) to HOLD, with a new price target (PT) of GBP 79.4. BGEO trades at 5.8x 2025E P/E and 1.5x P/TBV, which we see as fair, following a 114% USD return over the last 12M, and 566% over the past three years. After such a good earnings cycle, which leveraged on a superb macro backdrop, we see limited upside risk on our EPS forecasts and assumptions for the group’s long-term earnings power (ROTEs of 27% for Georgia and 22% for Armenia). We calculate that most...

We have upgraded Solutions by STC (Solutions) to BUY (from Hold), with an updated 12M price target (PT) of SAR 322, offering upside potential of 29%. With the stock down 24% over the past six months, and the company maintaining its 2025E revenue growth guidance, which implies a revenue acceleration in 2H25E, we see the current correction as an attractive buying opportunity. We continue to like Solutions for its market-leading position, and for being the “go to” IT name in Saudi Arabia. With a pr...
