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...

Green color and huge weekly turnover set SOFIX at 1025.22 (+1.8%) – level we haven’t seen since September 2008. Weekly turnover tripled and reached BGN 44m., compared to the average one YTD of BGN 15.6m. Main distributors for the increased volume were Doverie Unted Holding’s buy-back and Sopharma’s sales of its treasury shares. The week was highlighted also by the first IPO this year of Green Innovation which raised almost BGN 8m. on Tuesday.
The Bulgarian benchmark index SOFIX climbed 1.12% to 1025.22, reaching a record 16-year high on the final trading day of the week. The rise was driven by strong performances from Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 4.94, +2.23%) and Sopharma (SFA, BGN 7.00, +6.06%). Meanwhile Neochim (NEOH, BGN 22.00, -2.65%) and Albena (ALB, BGN 26.20, -2.96%) traded lightly and curbed the broader market’s momentum. As a result, BGBX40 and BGTR30 posted modest gains of 1.17% (188.81) and 0.76% (942.08), respe...
The Bulgarian equity market traded on a positive note throughout Tuesday’s session and the major indexes settled with gains in range between 0.09% and 0.21% while BGREIT (220.06, -0.21%) was an exception once again, following Advance Terrafund’s (ATER, BGN 2.80) slip by 1.06%. The positive bias came from names like Sirma Group (SGH, BGN 1.41, +2.92%), Eleven Capital (11C, BGN 15.50, +2.65%) and Chimimport (CHIM, BGN 0.71, +3.65%). The volumes remained low compared to 3-month average as the inves...
The main indexes on the BSE retreated last week with the exception of BGREIT (221.17; +0.6% WoW). The blue-chip SOFIX (1006.98) lost 0.6%, while the wider BGBX40 lost the most (187.06; -0.7% WoW). The top gainer within our universe was Bulgarian Real Estate Fund (BREF, BGN 4.88, +4.7%), while Shelly Group (SLYG, EUR 47.5, -4.8%) and Telematic Interactive Bulgaria (TIB, BGN 21.60, -4.4%) lost the most. Both the volumes (+123.1% YtD) and the weekly turnover (+156.2% YtD) were well above their YtD ...
