Market capitalisation

EUR199m

Based in Greece, AVAX operates through three main segments – construction, concessions and real estate, and marinas – with a large international footprint. The largest segment, construction, is involved in large-scale private and public works, with unique experience among its peers in energy infrastructure and subway construction.

The Greek construction market is worth around €7.5bn and can be split into two distinct sectors: housebuilding (c 30%) and civil engineering (c 70% non-residential construction, including commercial and infrastructure projects), including both private and public works. According to ELSTAT, overall average construction activity fell by just 9.5% in 2020, before increasing 7% in 2021 and 24.4% in 2022, the highest level since 2017 in absolute terms.

AVAX’s recent results highlight the group’s progress in its domestic market, and the 2 July announcement of an $82m EPC contract for a power plant in Iraq points to good progress internationally too. Furthermore, on 25 July, AVAX announced the successful issue of a €300mn bond by its concessions subsidiary, with the aim of aligning the assets and debt of its project business, and putting the entity in a position to target new investments. Our 2024 estimates include a substantial year-on-year increase in profits, with both PBT and net income more than doubling, bolstered by a record order book of €3.3bn. Our fair value stands at €3.0/share, more than 100% above the current share price.
