Pegasus’ reported results missed our estimates, but were broadly in line with the consensus collected by the company. The EBIT, a proxy for earnings (as it is unaffected by the non-cash FX gains and losses), was 5% lower yoy in 3Q24. Revenues were up by 13% yoy, driven by 9% ASK growth and a 4% stronger RASK. This was offset by the steep increase in costs. The ex-fuel cask (CASKX) was up 22%, driven chiefly by growth in personnel costs. This was alleviated partly by the fuel CASK, which was down...
3Q24 saw another good set of results from Graphisoft Park. The FFO delivery was in line with the same pace as previous quarters, translating into a double-digit FFO yield, one of the highest in the sector. Even after its strong share price performance, the stock is still trading at over a 30% discount to the NAV, and it remains one of our favourite real estate names in CEE. The planned launch of the residential for sale development in the Southern Area of the Park may be positive for momentum. W...
In this report, we transfer coverage of Athens Exchange Group (EXAE), with a BUY rating and an increased price target (PT) of EUR 6.5/share (50.0% upside), from EUR 4.8/share previously. We are constructive on the Greek equity market and expect EXAE to be able to capitalise on the market’s performance in the years to come. We believe that its operating performance should continue to improve and sponsor an attractive EPS growth profile, at a c.11% CAGR over the next 10 years, resulting in improve...
Bank of Cyprus (BOCH) announced EUR 130m in net income in 3Q24, bringing the 9M24 figure to EUR 401m. The bank grew its net income by 15% in 9M24 and had a ROTE of c.25%, with an 18.5% CET1. In our view, the 9M24 trends indicate upside risk for our 2024E and 2025E estimates. We believe that the market is still pricing in a tough long-term ROE scenario for BOCH, with 0.8x P/TBV and 4.3x P/E, on our 2024E estimates (not updated post 3Q24), which we believe is not on the horizon, with the current E...

The combination of continued capacity recovery and a weak macro backdrop is putting pressure on passenger yields. The more favourable fuel prices (and, for Turkish Airlines (THYAO), higher cargo yields) only partially compensate for cost pressures caused by the GTF engine issue, higher personnel costs, and general cost inflation. This means that margins are beginning to compress from the often very high levels we have seen in the past two-to-three years. Among the four airlines that we cover, we...

We reiterate our BUY rating on Graphisoft Park (GSPARK), increasing our 12M PT to EUR 13.0/share. Even with its low leverage (2Q24 net LTV of 32%), GSPARK generates 8-9% FFO ROE, one of the highest among the European landlords. Trading at a >30% discount to book, this translates into an FFO yield in the mid-teens, well ahead of its cost of equity, which we estimate at c.9-10%. GSPARK plans to build around 150 apartments in the Southern area of the Park. We expect to learn more details about the ...
