East Value Research (report 7 May 2024) – Share price target: PLN 9.62 – Current share price: PLN 4.00 (13 May 2024) – Upside potential: +140% (increase to 2.4x)
East Value Research (report 7 May 2024) – Share price target: PLN 9.62 – Current share price: PLN 4.00 (13 May 2024) – Upside potential: +140% (i.e. 2.4x)
EBITDA: – €21.6m (full year 2023) – €25.4m (full year 2024) = +31% yoy
Net income: – Loss of €23.8m (full year 2023) [includes €38.3m loss on revaluation of assets] – Profit of €9.42m (full year 2024)
Book value of equity: – €170.2m (31 December 2022) – €121.9m (31 December 2023) [after €38.3m loss on revaluation of assets and €27.6m decrease in FX translation reserve]
P/E: – Earnings per share: € 0.174 = PLN 0.75 (full year 2024) – Current share price: PLN 4.00 – P/E 5.3x
P/BV – BV per share: € 2.26 = PLN 9.71 (31 December 2023) – Current share price: PLN 4.00 – P/BV 0.41x
Discount to book value is very deep now (especially with book value already adjusted down for revaluation and FX reserve).
P/E is very low, if EBITDA seen in EVR's analysis for 2024 is realistic.
So, will 1Q 2024 results match EVR's numbers for 2024 (taken pro-rata)?
If yes, I expect the share price will jump quickly to 5.xx (+25%) then 6.xx (+50%) by the end of June. Further increases would be justified, but might not appear owing to the lack of liquidity in these shares.
