Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition – Mar 31, 2022

This story features EAGERS AUTOMOTIVE LIMITED, and other companies. For more info SHARE ANALYSIS: APE

An additional news report on the recommendation, valuation, forecast and opinion changes for ASX-listed equities.

In addition to The Australian Broker Call Report, which is published and updated daily (Mon-Fri), FNArena has now added The Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition, featuring additional sources of research and insights on ASX-listed stocks, also enlarging the number of stocks that make up the FNArena universe.

One key difference is the *Extra* Edition will not be updated daily, but merely "regularly" depending on availability of suitable quality content. As such, the *Extra* Edition tries to build a bridge between daily updates via the Australian Broker Call Report and ad hoc news stories, that are not always timely for investors hungry for the next information update.

Investors using the *Extra* Edition as a source of input for their own share market research should thus take into account that information after publication may not be up to date, or yet awaiting another update by FNArena's team of journalists.

Similar to The Australian Broker Call Report, this *Extra* Edition includes concise but limited reviews of research recently published by Stockbrokers and other experts, which should be considered as information concerning likely market behaviour rather than advice on the securities mentioned. Do not act on the contents of this Report without first reading the important information included at the end of this Report.

The Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition is a summary that has been prepared independently of the sources identified. Readers will check the full text of the recommendations and consult a Licenced Advisor before making any investment decision.

The copyright of this Report is owned by the publisher. Readers will not copy, forward or disseminate this Report to any other person. For more vital information about the sources included, see the bottom of this Report.

APE    EAGERS AUTOMOTIVE LIMITED

Automobiles & Components – Overnight Price: $14.50

Bell Potter rates ((APE)) as Buy (1) –

Eagers Automotive has snapped up WFM Motors Canberra dealerships and properties for $205m, hot on the heels of the sale of the Bill Buckle Auto Group for $92m in a move viewed positively by Bell Potter.

The acquisition will require shareholder approval given WFM Motors is owned by Eagers Automotive's director and majority shareholder, Nick Politis.

The purchase provides immediate scale in Canberra, the company's last remaining region for expansion. While turnover was not disclosed, Bell Potter says the multiple paid appears likely to be lower than the Bill Buckle sale multiple. 

EPS forecasts rise 2% in 2022, 4% in 2023 and 4% in 2024. Buy recommendation retained. Target price rises 3% to $17.25 from $16.75.

APM    APM HUMAN SERVICES INTERNATIONAL LIMITED

Healthcare – Overnight Price: $3.15

Goldman Sachs rates ((APM)) as Buy (1) –

Unsurprisingly according to Goldman Sachs, APM Human Services International has won market share with the announcement of the NESM/Workforce Australia tender results, gaining a 50% increase on its Jobactive footprint with contracts in 27 employment regions.

The company has also been appointed to the sub-panels of all 51 employment regions, which the broker expects is a good position for further market share gains from underperforming providers.

Goldman Sachs suggests earnings will likely look the same in FY23 as the increased market share offsets a caseload decline, but the broker expects earnings growth in FY24 and FY25.

JDO    JUDO CAPITAL HOLDINGS LIMITED

Business & Consumer Credit – Overnight Price: $1.77

Goldman Sachs rates ((JDO)) as Neutral (3) –

According to Goldman Sachs, Judo Capital's deposit growth will need to rise faster than the cash rate in order for the bank to achieve its targets, noting valuation is sensitive to where deposit spreads settle as cash rates rise which remains unpredictable. 

Judo Capital maintains a 70-75% medium-term deposit funding target, but Goldman Sachs notes achieving this will require a 65% deposit compound annual growth rate, with year-on-year deposit growth peaking over 100% in late 2023. 

The broker updates earnings per share estimates 39%, -8% and -6% through to FY24.

Lake Resources has signed an offtake agreement with Hanwa to supply lithium carbonate from Kachi for 10 years, with another 10-year option. Prices are referenced to average quarterly benchmarks.

Canaccord Genuity says the memorandum of understanding also allows Hanwa to consider financial support such as equity, offtake prepayment or trade finance.

The broker notes the 25ktpa deal is 50% of planned capacity and is among the largest chemical offtakes outside the majors but says given supply/demand dynamics, Lake Resources might have delivered a more binding deal.
