OPAP: licence to yield (reinitiating coverage with a BUY)

We reinitiate coverage of OPAP, with a BUY rating and a price target (PT) of EUR 18.9/share, which implies 18% upside from the current levels. Safe never looked so good, in our view. OPAP is delivering results cementing its steady growth and low gearing qualities, coupled with a generous shareholder remuneration policy and an attractive valuation.

OPAP - Improved momentum in Q224

OPAP enjoyed improved momentum in Q224 driven by the ongoing innovation of its core products in both retail and online, and the anticipated boost from the UEFA European Football Championship 2024. Interestingly, management highlighted that the new active customers it gained for the event have spent money in other non-sports betting verticals, and a high proportion have been retained, having enjoyed the increased functionality of its games.

OPAP - Steady progress towards FY24 guidance

OPAP delivered good revenue growth in Q124 while profitability declined, mainly due to the upfront investment to support a major new product launch, which should boost revenue as the year progresses and provide better leverage on the higher cost base. The broad message is of strong online growth with resilience in its land-based activities, which gives management confidence to reiterate its guidance for the year.
