Putin's special military operation turns spotlight on a tiny Catalist-listed agricultural company
Investors are not just doubting Don Agro's ability to cope with the turmoil, but worry that entities to which it is exposed might suddenly come to grief
DON Agro International could be on the brink of delivering exciting returns to its shareholders; or losing a great deal of its value. Much depends on what happens in Russia in the weeks and months ahead.
On the one hand, the Catalist-listed company that cultivates agricultural crops and produces raw milk appears to be positioned to benefit from rising food commodity prices as well as the increasing value of arable land.
On the other hand, the global opprobrium and economic sanctions that Russia has brought on itself by invading Ukraine create a great deal of uncertainty for Don Agro's shareholders - which is unlikely to be completely dispelled by even the most detailed of disclosures by the company.
