We transfer coverage of Benefit Systems (BFT), maintaining our BUY on the stock. We set our 12-month price target (PT) at PLN 5,000 (from PLN 4,300), 32% potential upside.

The WIG Banks index has returned c.45%+ in the LTM, mostly a function of a multiples expansion, as the 2025E median EPS change was almost zero in the LTM and the 2026E EPS saw a median cut of 10% in the LTM, driven mostly by the change in the...
