The offer price is PLN43 per share. At listing, Allegro's free-float will be PLN9.1 or EUR2.05bn, which is sizable.
Below I show three scenarios for long-term value for Allegro with respect to Amazon's entry, with a DCF valuation. I also include what would Allegro's "Market Prices" be if (1) the actual price is 25% below the fundamental value and (2) if the actual price is 15% below the fundamental value.
I see the table of valuation below a grid with which to guide, from a long-only perspective, for entry into the stock or for selling your allocation.
