We publish our combined 2024 Austrian & CEE Equity Navigator in which we take a constructive view on our home markets. Our preferred stock pick stem from several sectors on which we have a positive view. These comprise Financials (Erste and OTP: supportive interest rates, attractive shareholder returns), Oil & Gas (OMV and Romgaz: strong FCF generation, attractive dividends), Communication Services (Telekom Austria and 11 bit studios: revenue growth, margin improvement), Consumer (Aquila and LPP: sales growth, margin expansion), Industrials (Andritz and Koncar: strong order backlog, improving profitability) and Information Technology (AT&S: market recovery, potential exposure to AI) sectors. We generally adopt a neutral stance on Insurance (slowing pricing momentum vs. solid dividends), Real Estate (uncertainties regarding the pace of interest rate cuts, weak real estate transaction markets) and Utilities (negative electricity price momentum, new regulation pending). Our top picks in Austria: Andritz, AT&S, Erste, OMV, Telekom Austria. Our top picks in CEE: 11 bit studios (PL), Aquila (RO), Koncar (HR), LPP (PL), OTP (HU), Romgaz (RO). |
