Morgans rates BBN as Hold
Morgans hosted Baby Bunting CEO and CFO at its annual Morgans Conference last week, noting the company re-affirmed FY25 guidance for net profits of $9.5m-$12.5m, like-for-like sales growth between 0%-3% and a 40% gross margin
Slightly softer than expected sales in 1Q25 from the first seven weeks of FY25 were attributed to an absence of promotions which lifted sales in the previous corresponding period.
New product additions in six out of seven categories are doing well. The broker believes new product innovation is a growth lever for the company. Management also identified 43 stores out of 71 in Australia to be part of the refurbishment program.
Hold rating unchanged. Target price lifts to $1.80 from $1.70.
Bell Potter rates BPT as Buy
Bell Potter observes Beach Energy 1Q25 production, group sales and revenue all came in well above forecasts with a full contribution from Enterprise and a rise of 24% in Otway basin over the previous quarter.
Field declines at Western Flank continued while Cooper Basin JV volumes rose, the broker notes. Management retained FY25 guidance with a wide production range which offers Waitsia Stage 2 ramp-up scope for variances. Initial gas is expected in early 2025.
The analyst likes the downward trend in capex, retaining a positive position on Australia's east coast gas market. EPS forecasts are lifted by 17% in FY25 and 10% in FY26.
Bell Potter maintains a Buy rating, lifting the target price to $1.50 from $1.40.
Citi rates NCK as Buy
The analysts at Citi will not be budging from their current Buy-rated thesis on Nick Scali despite the sudden gross margin deterioration across A&NZ revealed at yesterday's AGM.
The broker anticipates margins will revert to prior levels over the course of FY25. It's thought factory costs will decline due to general weakness in China and increasing scale from shifting UK volumes to the company’s existing factories.
Citi also notes any reduction in interest rates should provide a tailwind via housing churn.
The target falls to $15.93 from $16.53.
