WOOD Flash - EMEA airlines: 1Q24 traffic - a good start to the year
While the share prices of the European airlines have been hit in recent days, by the heightened geopolitical tensions, all the European carriers in our coverage universe have seen a good start to the year in terms of traffic. Wizz Air has flown roughly double its 1Q19 ASK, on the back of the significant investments into its network and fleet that continued even during the pandemic. To put this into context, Ryanair has flown roughly 20% more pax in calendar 1Q24 compared to 1Q19. Pegasus Airline...

WOOD Flash - CCC: key takeaways from the recent site visit
Last week (10-12 April) we attended a site visit at CCC’s HQ, which presented new collections and discussed new agreements with suppliers, including exclusive licences. After a long struggle with excess and outdated inventories, over 90% of its stock now comes from fresh collections. Moreover, new supply agreements, including licences with Reebok, Hunter, Nine West, Kappa and Mexx, and renegotiated deals with the remaining suppliers, coupled with the “circle” mechanism of co-financing the sell-d...

Dom Development: volume growth, margins stronger for longer (stays BUY...
After the excellent 2023 (3.9k units sold, PLN 2.6bn in revenues and a 30+% ROE, with just PLN 131m of net debt), we believe that Dom Development (Dom) is en route to another good year. Construction costs are stable and prices are still trending up, albeit at a slower pace than last year, when we saw offer prices for new apartments rise 14-22% yoy in major Polish cities, according to JLL. This means that we could see strong margins for longer, with possible upside to the already-high GPM of rece...

Benefit Systems: strong momentum continues (stays BUY)
We maintain our BUY on Benefit Systems (BFT). Our new 12-month price target (PT) of PLN 3,400 (up by 26%) offers 23% potential upside. We have increased our 2024-26E adjusted EBIT forecasts by 20-26%, due mostly to our higher profitability assumptions, reflecting the positive surprises in recent quarters, the company’s strong January-February guidance, and our 1Q24E expectations. We expect 32% yoy growth in the adjusted EBIT this year, driven by 24% top-line growth and 1.3ppt yoy higher profitab...

We are revisiting and transferring coverage of the Greek banks. We estimate their earnings to plateau, and their ROTEs to normalise in 2024-26E, as the market expects short-term Euribor rates to decline. Capital and liquidity gain importance as there is less easy money. The emphasis will be on optimising balance sheets, returning capital, and minimising funding costs relative to Euribor. We like National Bank of Greece (NBG; BUY) for its profitability, simplicity, and potential to return capital...

WOOD Flash – Turkish Airlines: 4Q24 – ending a strong year on a high n...
With the slowdown in RASK (coming down from the exceptionally high base of late-2022) and some margin compression expected, we see 4Q23 as a strong end to another excellent year for Turkish Airlines (THYAO). The EBITDA margin stood at 29% for the year, and the net debt to EBITDA fell further, to 1.3x as of YE23, from 1.7x at YE22 and 3.9x as of YE19.
