We have increased our 12M price target (PT) for MONETA Money Bank to CZK 149.4/share (from CZK 116.2/share), while we keep our HOLD rating on the stock, due to its dividend angle. However, with a 2025E P/E and P/BV of 11.4x and 2.2x, respectively, we see its valuation as full, with no room for a multiples rerating, and we consider MONETA as one of our least preferred names in the CE3 banking space. On the one side, if there is any issue with the bank’s equity story, e.g., political risks after t...
We have downgraded Komercni Banka to HOLD (from Buy), and we set our updated 12M price target (PT) at CZK 1,108 (up from CZK 959/share), 7% upside. We see the c.9% annual dividend yield as the key return for shareholders in the next 12 months. We believe that the high yield should be sustainable over the next two years, as we have prolonged our assumption of a 100% dividend payout ratio by one year, beyond management’s explicit current guidance. Komercni Banka is trading at our 2025-26E P/Es of ...

Brent crude oil prices rose USD 5.8/bbl vs. the previous month, on the fear of a disruption in the Strait of Hormuz. Despite rising crude prices, a strong diesel crack means that the WOOD benchmark also improved, to USD 13.0/bbl, the highest level since March 2024. Petrochemicals margins were lower, but not affected by the high oil prices, as may have been expected.
