Orlen announced a new strategy update yesterday (9 January), laying out management’s targets for 2035E and the path it will take to get there. This strategy update follows a change of management and, so, could have included major changes. In general however, much of the broad sweep of strategic choices resemble those in the previous plan, even though the details have changed. Management is still committed to a progressive dividend strategy, with a minor upward adjustment, which sees the 2025E di...

European Oil and Gas Monthly: December 2024
Average crude oil prices changed little in December, after production increases and perceived weakness in demand pushed prices down in November. The WOOD benchmark margin remains above average, despite reaching its lowest level in 2024, after declining by USD 0.7/bbl. Petrochemicals remains in the doldrums, with some product groups marginally better and others marginally worse.

We rate PZU a BUY, with a new 12M price target (PT) of PLN 64.9/share, offering 42% upside potential. PZU is one of our top picks among the regional financials. We see its discounted valuation (2025E P/E of 6.8x and P/BV of 1.2x), and its status as one of the most reliable dividend payers in the region (9%+ yield next year), as attractive. This is in combination with positive fundamentals, including improving EPS momentum (our 2025E EPS is +18% yoy) and a medium-term performance supported by the...

Perceived weakness in demand brought oil prices lower in November and threatens to push them lower still. OPEC freezing production for another three months may not be enough. For the second month running, the WOOD benchmark margin was close to average, while HELLENiQ’s margins rose and Orlen’s fell. Petrochemicals remains in the doldrums, despite lower oil prices.

Following a change in analyst responsibilities, we transfer coverage, and update our forecasts and outlook, of the Polish utilities, due to the recent (non) development of the coal carve out. In view of: 1) Enea’s recent strategy update, assuming coal generation within the group until 2035E; 2) Tauron’s comments on “being prepared” for no carve out; and 3) with no dedicated funds in the 2025 budget to finance the plan, we do not see a carve out happening soon. While we do not rule it out, the ch...
