Bell Potter rates IMM as Speculative Buy

Immutep has licensed the development and commercialisation of Efti to Dr Reddy’s Laboratories for Emerging Markets (countries excluding NA/EU/Japan/China).

It will earn US$20m upfront, up to US$350m in milestones, and double-digit royalties, while keeping manufacturing and key Phase 3 lung-cancer responsibilities plus rights in major markets, Bell Potter observes.

The broker sees the deal as strong validation and providing non-dilutive funding, while preserving the high-value US/EU/Japan rights for future partnerships and potentially prompting more interest (e.g., Merck).

Target rises to 60c from 46c as forecasts are updated to reflect contributions from this deal in FY26-27. Speculative Buy retained.

Macquarie rates LOT as Outperform

Lotus Resources is experiencing sulfuric acid shortages from its Zambian supplier which has tempered throughput for Kayelekera in the December quarter. Macquarie notes management has secured additional supply from South Africa (10-day drive) which should help.

The analyst has deferred the initial export to the June quarter next year due to the acid issues and the time to achieve product accreditation.

Due to lower production from Kayelekera, the push back in first sale, the broker lowers FY26 EPS estimate by -1.6c per share with less downgrades to FY27/FY28.

No change to Outperform rating and 28c target price.

Shaw and Partners rates MMI as Buy

Metro Mining posted a November shipping record of 783k wmt of bauxite, taking year-to-date shipments to 5.6m wmt and keeping it on track to meet 6.2-6.6m wmt guidance, Shaw and Partners highlights.

The broker notes the company also set a vessel-loading record, filling 178kt onto the Zhi NV Star in 5.6 days.

Despite strong FY25 records, Metro missed early-year volume expectations, so the broker conservatively downgraded its FY26 forecast to 6.8Mt and FY27 to 7.0Mt, from 7.5Mt each.

The broker also trimmed its price forecast for bauxite, resulting in a -14% cut to FY25 EBITDA forecast and a -32% downgrade to FY26.

Buy retained. Target cut to 15c from 17c, but the broker still calls the company its top pick.
