The Greek banking index has risen by 53% (62% with dividends), driven by higher P/E multiples and EPS upgrades since our April 2024 reinitiation.

Given the higher focus on higher-margin products, operating leverage and synergies, we forecast a solid three-year adjusted EBITDA CAGR of 23%. That places Shoper 8ppts above Allegro’s...
