We maintain our BUY on Bank of Cyprus (BOCH) and increase our price target (PT) to EUR 9.62/share (from EUR 9.34/share). BOCH is trading at 8.2x P/E and 1.3x P/TBV on our 2025E estimates. At our fair value, the bank would trade at 9.9x P/E and 1.6x P/TBV for 2025E. We believe that both the intrinsic and relative valuation cases remain intact. Investors will earn an 8% yield, while waiting for realistic rerating upside. In our view, the longer the bank holds this much excess capital, the higher t...

Pegasus has agreed to acquire Czech Airlines and its subsidiary, Smartwings, for EUR 154m (full equity). Subject to regulatory approval, the transaction could mark a new phase in Pegasus’s development as a group, with EU-domiciled airlines, offering a strategic foothold in Prague and, more broadly, across Europe. With over EUR 1.5bn in liquidity at end-September, the purchase price is manageable, while the deal provides access to an EU carrier generating around one-third of Pegasus’s revenues, a...

Passenger traffic momentum has weakened in 2025, and we do not expect it to improve significantly in 2026. Turkey’s aviation traffic trends showed 6.6% y/y growth in 10M25 (international +7%; domestic +6%), marking a slowdown from previous years (2023: +18%; 2024: +8% y/y) as the tourism sector faces headwinds from TL appreciation and geopolitics. Foreign tourist arrivals stayed flattish y/y in 10M25, marking the slowest y/y performance since the Covid rebound. Looking ahead to 2026, continued T...

Broad earnings resilience, but no spark for upgrades… – Systemic Greek banks delivered results broadly in line with our estimates and consensus. NII momentum stabilised in 3Q (-0.2% q/q), effectively marking the trough after three consecutive quarters of deceleration, given Euribor’s plateauing. Fees posted a mild q/q decline—consistent with our forecasts—reflecting seasonal softness in payments and money transfers, while bancassurance and asset-management’s AuMs continued to expand at a strong ...

The macro backdrop entering 2026E remains broadly supportive for high-dividend strategies across Emerging Europe and the frontier markets, but the opportunity set has clearly narrowed. After a year of sharp repricing across the WOOD universe, the high dividend conditions of 2024-25 have largely disappeared, as a result of many sectors rerating materially. As a result, high-dividend exposure is no longer a broad regional trade: the most compelling opportunities are now concentrated. However, the ...

Bank of Cyprus has posted EUR 118m in 3Q25 net income, 15% above our estimate. We are positive on the 3Q25 results, with the earnings beat driven partly by stronger-than-expected cost control. Management has also finetuned and upgraded its 2025E guidance, and confirmed that, by 4Q25E, the NIM should have fully settled with the current rate environment, positioning the bank for NII expansion from 1Q26E. We have a BUY rating on Bank of Cyprus, with a EUR 9.3/share PT. The bank is trading at 9.1x P...

Despite 17% capacity growth, the EBIT declined 20% yoy, driven by a sharp yield contraction, with the RASK down 14% yoy. For context, during the summer periods of 2024, 2023, 2022 and 2019 (excluding the COVID-19 period), the average EBIT margin stood at 36% – around 50% above the 24% achieved in 3Q25 – despite fuel cost support. The company has lowered its guidance slightly. Management noted that the market conditions in 4Q25 remain unchanged, implying continued pressure on the RASK. We expect ...
