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...
