Fair presentation of recommendation

The issuers of the analyzed investment instruments had not been informed before the distribution of this analysis of its content and the analysis has not been adjusted in any way based on their instructions. The Analysis is created based on standard financial and econometric models. In the case of share recommendation, these are different variants of the discounted cash flow and the net asset value methods. In the case of bonds and currencies, the standard methods include the closed macroeconomic models of Clarida-Gali-Gertler or QPM CNB types.

Degree of investment recommendation for equities

Target prices for the shares' 12-month horizon reflect the fair share value based on the fundamental factors and other information relevant for the share price. All verbal recommendations are based on the fundamental value of the securities and do not reflect the relative performance of the share in relation to other regional titles. Verbal recommendations reflect the relation between the target price and the share price at the time of calculating the target price, i.e. the issue of the relevant company analysis. The particular numeral values are stated in the brackets: buy (target price 20% above share price), accumulate (10% to 20% above), hold (0% to 10% above), reduce (target price ranging from -10% to 0% in relation to the share price when calculating the target price) and sell (below -10%).

Risks

Česká spořitelna, a.s. assumes no responsibility for any possible losses caused directly or indirectly by the use of the information in this document.

These include, for instance, the risks connected with supply and demand for the particular investment instrument, competition risk, input price risk or market fluctuation risk.
