AS AT 30 NOVEMBER 2017 MAGNA EASTERN EUROPEAN FUND EUR SECTOR EXPOSURE (%) COMMENTARY The stockmarkets of Eastern Europe returned a mixed performance in November with a marked divergence between the best and the worst. Russia led the gains, outperforming Turkey, the month’s laggard, by over 11%. While Turkey’s battled with concerns surrounding inflation and Iran sanctions related newsflow, Russia benefited from buoyant oil prices. Brent crude ended the month at USD 63 per barrel, its highest monthly close since May 2015, helped by a nine-month extension to OPEC’s production cutting deal. Russian state lender Sberbank was the standout performer, rising sharply in November, following a Bloomberg report suggesting that it might increase its dividend payout ratio from 25% last year to 35-40% Energy 28.1 this year and 50% in 2018. We believe that Sberbank has the potential to increase its dividend gradually over time, though not as rapidly as suggested by this report. When we last met the Governor of the Central Materials 8.0 Bank of Russia, Sberbank’s regulator, our key takeaway was the importance the central bank put on financial Industrials 2.6 stability and hence capital preservation, reflected in its opposition to the Ministry of Finance’s request that Consumer Discretionary 8.4 all SOEs pay at least 50% of their profits as dividends. Given that Sberbank’s capital ratios trail its peers, Consumer Staples 11.5 and their sensitivity to the exchange rate, we deem such dividend payout expectations as too aggressive. Health Care 0.0 The bank is due to update the market in December at its capital markets day. We expect new guidance on Financials 35.5 dividends to throw some light on the extent of margin compression risk the bank faces from asset repricing and some indication of any mitigating actions they intend to take to support the revenue outlook. Information Technology 3.6 Telecommunication Services 1.2 KazMunaiGas EP, the Kazakh oil company, advanced 11% to make it one of the best performing stocks in the portfolio, on increased optimism that there might be a restructuring of the nation’s oil assets. We met Utilities 0.0 independent members of the board and were impressed with the firm’s governance. Real Estate 0.0 Cash 1.1 Continuing its fall from grace, Russian food retailer Magnit was the most visible laggard in the portfolio. Once the darling of investors, the company is now trying to turn its fortunes around after a series of Total 100.0 disappointing results. The company announced its intention to raise USD730m to fund an accelerated store rollout, refurbishment program and vertical integration initiatives. At the same time, Magnit’s key COUNTRY EXPOSURE (%) shareholder Sergey Galitsky sold USD700m worth of shares. The news of the rights issue and Galitsky’s sale, which was executed at a 10% discount to the prevailing price, weighed heavily on the shares. The Fund remains underweight Magnit, with a strong preference for X5 Retail Group in the food retail sector.
