GEVORKYAN has delivered 3Q24 results that were broadly in line with our expectations. We highlight that the company managed to deliver an EBITDA margin of 32% (one of the best in its history) and should deliver on its 2024E adjusted EBITDA (adjusted for one-off expenses) guidance of EUR 28.1m. However, we believe that its 2024E reported EBITDA will be lower, at EUR 26.1-26.5m, but this is in line with our 2024E EBITDA, at EUR 26.4m. Based on its signed long-term contracts (99% signed, out of EUR...

EME Equity Market - September 2024 EME indices mostly in the red in September; rebound in Greece. The MSCI EM Europe Index declined 2.0% in EUR terms and 1.1% in USD terms in September. The Greek ASE Index was the best performer in our region, advancing 1.4% mom in EUR terms. Muted performances were seen in Czechia and Hungary (+0.3% and +0.2% mom, respectively in EUR terms), with declines in Poland, Romania and Turkey (-3.6%, -2.9% and -1.5% mom, respectively in EUR terms).
The reported 2Q24 results were materially lower than expected, due to the one-off expenses related to the transfer of the assets from competitors. Adjusted for this, the 2Q24 EBITDA would have been in line with our expectations, and the net profit broadly in line with our estimate. Despite these one-off costs, the company reiterated its 2024E revenue and EBITDA guidance, with its signed, long-term contracts accounting for 97% of its revenues for 2024E as of June 2024. We believe that GEVORKYAN i...
