BSE – Budapest Stock Exchange Market Survey BSE – Budapest Stock Exchange Market Survey – June 2017 June 2017 by Capital Lounge GmbH BSE – Budapest Stock Exchange | Market Survey 02 HISTORY MAIN ACTIVITIES INSTRUMENTS The Hungarian Stock Exchange, the ancestor of Listing Services Currently, there are 68 instruments listed on today's Budapest Stock Exchange (BSE) started BSE. The table below will show their break- its operation on January 18th 1864 in Pest on Trading Services down: the banks of Danube (in a building of the Lloyd Equities Standard (18) Insurance Company). Dissemination of Market Information Equities Prime (13) When the exchange was launched, there were Corporate Bonds (12) 17 equities, one debenture, 11 foreign Product Development Equities T (7) currencies and 9 bills of exchange listed.

The objective of the BSE is to become the most important platform for competitive and successful enterprises in Hungary. The task of identifying and selecting enterprises that are ready for the stock exchange, and preparing them for the launch process, is one of crucial importance, and there is therefore a need to expand and broaden the consultancy services offered to issuers, and to develop an effective method of screening (scoring). One way of doing this is to set up a stock exchange “antechamber”, which operates with the active collaboration of specially contracted top market players – IPO Partners –, who help to bring together companies that are interested in raising capital market funds; the new companies are then evaluated and selected in order to prepare them for launching on the regulated or the SME market. Implementation of the strategy will benefit from the fact that the BSE is, since December 2015, once again under national Hungarian ownership, and thus enjoys the support of the Hungarian National Bank (HNB), an owner that is committed to developing the capital market. This in turn reinforces the commitment of economic players towards the BSE, as it conveys a positive image of the future of the capital market and increases general confidence in the Hungarian stock exchange. To meet the special needs of SMEs, it will be necessary to establish a new SME market to support the presence of large numbers of SMEs on the capital market, and to help them obtain funding. The SME market will include the following: A multilateral trading facility (MTF) for companies which are ready to operate in the public sphere but which are not at a stage of development that allows them to meet the requirements for launch on the regulated market. A private placement platform (PPP) for enterprises which are not yet ready to operate in the public sphere but which are looking for capital investors to enter into private transactions, and which may later transfer to the public markets. A crowdfunding platform – to be launched at a later stage of the strategy timescale – operating under a separate brand name from the other markets of the BSE, whose objective is to finance start-up businesses with the involvement of large numbers of investors, each investing lower sums of capital. © Capital Lounge GmbH BSE – Budapest Stock Exchange | Market Survey 04 EQUITY SEGMENTS AND COSTS PRIME STANDARD T The equities may be listed in three different markets – there is no MTF, yet: MARKET MARKET MARKET Market capitalisation min. 5 billion forints no requirements no requirements Prime Market To be listed on the Prime Market, the instrument must meet several criteria min. 25 percent or regarding market capitalisation, ownership structure (free-float) and corporate Free float min. 500 owners or no requirements no requirements history.

    CIVIC SPACE THE REAPPROPRIATION OF VACANT BUILDINGS IN FOUR EUROPEAN CITIES by LEVENTE POLYÁK Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Associate Professor Daniel Monterescu Associate Professor Prem Kumar Rajaram CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2016 Levente Polyak PhD Dissertation Civic Space Abstract In the past years, analyses of urban real estate systems have come to the foreground not only in academic research but also in urban activism. The millennium’s real estate crisis made its appearance at diverse segments of the cities across the world, touching housing, office buildings, retail spaces, community venues and public buildings, and strongly affected municipal and national budgets as well as welfare services. While in many countries, the economic crisis culminated in a devastating foreclosure crisis, the corresponding escalation of non-residential property vacancy created possibilities in many European cities for an alternative model of user-generated, community-led urban development processes through the adaptive reuse of empty buildings, spaces or land. In cities where a strong alliance of various actors created the right conditions and assurances, long-lasting structures and opportunities were created. In others, user-generated regeneration projects were instrumentalised and incorporated in institutional or for-profit development processes. Yet in others, in the absence of credible public

  • ZWACK UNICUM EQUITY NOTE: ZWACK UNICUM Recommendation: HOLD (Unchanged) Target Price (12M): HUF 16,056 (Revised Down)
    EQUITY RESEARCH – ZWACK UNICUM EQUITY NOTE: ZWACK UNICUM Recommendation: HOLD (unchanged) Target price (12M): HUF 16,056 (revised down) 23 May 2019 Equity Analyst: We maintain our HOLD recommendation on Zwack Unicum (Zwack HB; ZWCG.BU) with Orsolya Rátkai a new 12M target price of 16,056 HUF/share, revised down from 16,271 HUF/share. The new target price reflects our slightly modified export sales projection over the Phone: +36 1 374 7270 forecast horizon of 2019–2024, and changes in the Hungarian risk-free rate. Higher taxes, slowing consumption, and increasing operational costs also play a role in the Email: somewhat subdued profit outlook in the challenging business environment in the short [email protected] and medium run. The new target price stands 8% below the HUF 17,500 closing price on 23 May, 2019. Even though investors can expect significant dividend payment after the latest business year, offering 7% dividend yield, it cannot fully offset the expected deterioration in the company’s valuation. Shares of Zwack Unicum dropped 0.3% on 23 May, 2019, while gained 2.3% in the last 3 months. Summary/Earnings Highlights As it was expected, Zwack Unicum sales revenues dropped significantly YoY in January-March 2019, after heavy stockpiling in the last calendar quarter of 2018. Quarterly domestic sales revenues declined 24% YoY, and export sales fell similarly. Although the January-March period is usually low season and brings some losses, operating and net loss roughly doubled the one reported in the base period.
