ResearchGreece are positive assuming Fourlis will sell an additional 13.3% stake and deconsolidate Trade Estates, using the proceeds to reduce net debt and grow retail sales - mostly IKEA with new stores - at E715m with EBIT at E50m by 2027, both lower than guidance of E750m and E60m in 2026. Seasonally weak Q1 results were promising with sales rising +3.8% yoy and EBITDA turning positive at E0.8m from -E0.3m.
