Veles Capital presents analysis update on Comstar-UTS:
Last week Comstar-UTS published its 1
H 2008 financial results.
Company’s report demonstrated negative trends of efficiency dynamics, due to higher expenses growth rates over income growth rates. This trend especially evident over 1H period. Among the reasons of higher growth rates of expenses are: decreased tariffs of MGTS (Comstar’s major subsidiary) and also Comstar’s aggressive activities in broadband market segment.
1H 2008 results of the company have met our expectations in
general and in accordance to this, we just slightly changed our
income and expenses forecasts. The main changes are referred to
the fact that Access Industries, implementing put-option, sold 46 mn
of shares to Comstar, as a part of the blocking stake purchase deal
of Svyazinvest. According to our estimations, strike-price of
(weighted average price of LSE per 90 days) the given option forms
about 10 USD per Comstar’s share, i.e. the whole stake costs –
about 462 mn USD. During the deal, the cash assets will be reduced
by the same amount, whereas the company receives treasury stocks
and free-float decreases on the same value.
Regarding the other estimation factor: the change of fair price of
Svyazinvest’s blocking stake. The new estimation determines prices
fall of all subsidiaries of Svyazinvest. Our previous estimation of the
blocking stake formed 1.8 bn USD; today it totals 1.6 bn USD.
Taking into account all described factors, we decreased fair price of
share/GDR of Comstar from 13.479 USD to 12.693 USD. In spite of
the fall of quotes, company’s shares have reached all time lowest,
having a significant growth potential to be achieved the fair value.
We confirm our “BUY” recommendation on Comstar’s securities.

Surgutneftegas: Currency rates are putting away the dividends..., 26 November 2009
We have revised our model of Surgutneftegas. The reason for that was the output of the 3Q 2009 report, correction of our suppositions of the company’s future development, and also the postponing of the target time and evaluation one year forward. Particularly, in our model of Surgutneftegas we have corrected the former forecast of income for the current year towards reduction: on EBIT – by 2.2%, on the net profit – by 21.5%. Mainly that happened due to the corrections on the operating estimates, and also due to the continuing strengthening of Russian ruble, which, considering significant dollar liquidity of the company, turns into negative currency exchange. Due to the negative currency exchange precisely For the second quarter in a row Surgutneftegas shows low level of the net profit. The fourth quarter, as we see it, will not make an exception and we expect negative currency exchange similar to the ones in the third quarter.
