Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition – Nov 16, 2021

This story features BOSS ENERGY LIMITED, and other companies. For more info SHARE ANALYSIS: BOE

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.

Uranium – Overnight Price: $0.36

Bell Potter rates ((BOE)) as Initiation of coverage with a Speculative Buy (1) –

Bell Potter expects Boss Energy will be Australia’s next uranium producer with the pending restart of operations at the flagship Honeymoon project. The broker initiates coverage with a Speculative Buy rating and $0.44 target price.

The project has an estimated 12-month lead time to first production, and potential to produce 2.45mlbs per annum within three years of restart, explains the analyst. It's thought the project is a lower-risk development opportunity in a tier 1 jurisdiction.

Bell Potter assesses a key catalyst will be the reaching a final investment decision (FID). The company is expected to have first mover advantage to lock-in lucrative beginning-of-cycle contracts, prior to additional supply entering the market.

Household & Personal Products – Overnight Price: $3.13

Canaccord Genuity rates ((DSK)) as Buy (1) –

Canaccord Genuity believes Dusk Group will be a winner from the ‘gifting’ trade into Xmas. The analyst also sees potential upside from overseas expansion and acquisitions, which are not currently factored into the share price.

Moreover, gross margins are up on the previous corresponding period and foreign exchange tailwinds are offsetting higher freight costs, explains the broker.

The Buy rating and $3.35 target price are unchanged.

Shaw and Partners rates ((DSK)) as Buy (1) –

A trading update from Dusk Group revealed sales down -13.0% on the same period last year in the nineteen weeks year to date, which does not surprise Shaw and Partners who note a post-lockdown surge in sales July-October last year.

Yet sales were up 30% on the pre-covid period, with online up 19% year on year and 227% from pre-covid. The period was impacted by store closures in the recent lockdowns, but all stores have now reopened.

Gross margins are up on FY21 despite supply constraints with some help from price increases at end-June. Shaw has cut forecast earnings and reduced its target to $3.50 from $3.80, and retains Buy on a longer term view.

GNC    GRAINCORP LIMITED

Agriculture – Overnight Price: $6.86

Bell Potter rates ((GNC)) as Hold (3) –

GrainCorp's FY21 underlying profit of $139.3m was ahead of Bell Potter's $126.3m forecast and at the upper-end of guidance. While the 2H21 DPS of 10cps was well below the expected 29cps forecast, a buyback of up to $50m was announced.

Despite FY22 upside from two of the largest ever consecutive east coast crops, the analyst is expecting the crop size to normalise, leading to a material fall in earnings (EBITDA) and EPS.

Management expects another above average crop will likely support Agribusiness earnings into FY22. The broker upgrades profit forecast by 24% in FY22 and downgrades FY23 by -3%. The target price rises to $6.15 from $6 and the Hold rating is unchanged.

This report was published on November 12, 2021.

Target price is $6.15 Current Price is $6.86 Difference: minus $0.71 (current price is over target).
If GNC meets the Bell Potter target it will return approximately minus 10% (excluding dividends, fees and charges – negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Wilsons rates ((GNC)) as Market Weight (3) –

Wilsons lifts its target price for GrainCorp to $6.95 from $6.04 after higher grain volumes and significant margin expansion led to a 5% FY21 results beat. The broker feels the strong near-term earnings outlook will likely see the focus turn to growth investment opportunities.

The analyst assumes ‘through-cycle’ earnings, below the company’s guidance and concedes forecasting is difficult, with the currently-elevated grain volumes and earnings.

This report was published on November 12, 2021.

Target price is $6.95 Current Price is $6.86 Difference: $0.09
If GNC meets the Wilsons target it will return approximately 1% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

GPR    GEOPACIFIC RESOURCES LIMITED

Gold & Silver – Overnight Price: $0.23

Shaw and Partners rates ((GPR)) as Downgrade to Hold from Buy (3) –

Inclement weather, increased PNG covid cases and poor execution have led to delays to the development of Geopacific Resources' Woodlark Island gold project. All non-essential activities on the site will be deferred until the first half 2022.

Shaw and Partners has subsequently downgraded to Hold from Buy and is now reviewing its forecasts pending an update on funding, development capital and a revised schedule for Woodlark expected in early 2022.

To that end FNArena has removed prior earnings and dividend forecasts and target price.

Current Price is $0.23. Target price not assessed.

Goldman Sachs adjusts FY22 assumptions to reflect further clarity on revenue and margin expectations for hipages Group for FY22. The Buy rating is retained and the target price increases to $4.95 from $4.90.

The broker sees an opportunity to capture a greater share of gross merchandise value (GMV) among its tradie base by focusing on larger trade businesses.

Moreover, expansion beyond maintenance, repairs and renovation could include areas such as property management, retail, insurance and community/government work, suggests the analyst.

This report was published on November 11, 2021.

Education & Tuition – Overnight Price: $1.23

Taylor Collison initiates coverage on Janison Education Group with a Speculative Buy rating and $1.38 target price. The company has partnered with the OECD to digitally deliver the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) test globally.

The analyst also feels the continued digital roll-out of the International Competitions Assessments for Schools (ICAS) assessment should underpin strong medium-term revenue growth.

As a result of low variable costs, the broker envisages increasing margins, once revenue climbs from assessment products. Taylor Collison believes the core IP, named the Insights assessment platform, is now a world leader, particularly in servicing school clients.

This report was published on November 5, 2021.

New Battery Elements – Overnight Price: $1.65

Liontown Resources 100% owns the Kathleen Valley lithium project and has released a definitive feasibility study (DFS). Also released, was a scoping study on integrating a downstream lithium hydroxide refining capability.

Bell Potter notes the company is now developing a significantly larger project, building spodumene concentrate production towards 700ktpa in the long term, from initial levels of around 500ktpa.

The broker notes the next steps include project permitting, offtake agreements, front-end engineering and design (FEED) and financing ahead of the final investment decision (FID) by mid-2022.

M7T    MACH7 TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED

Healthcare services – Overnight Price: $0.93

Shaw and Partners rates ((M7T)) as Buy (1) –

The three things that drew Shaw and Partners attention at Mach7 Technologies' AGM were an observable impact from new sales & marketing leadership, management comfortable with the FY22 outlook, and a future underpinned by multiple drivers.

Shaw initiated coverage of Mach7 only last week suggesting a positive outlook and potential for operating leverage is not being captured in current valuation, implying the stock may have "fallen through the cracks" of investor focus.

Nothing has changed, and the broker reiterates its belief the stock will be another strong software re-rate story. Buy and $1.50 target retained.

Target price is $1.50 Current Price is $0.93 Difference: $0.57
If M7T meets the Shaw and Partners target it will return approximately 61% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

NEA    NEARMAP LIMITED

Software & Services – Overnight Price: $1.81

Canaccord Genuity rates ((NEA)) as Buy (1) –

During Nearmap's AGM, management retained its medium-term annual contract value (ACV) growth guidance of between 20%-40%. Initial FY22 guidance for the ACV to increase to between $150m-$160m on a constant currency basis was also provided.

The gap between FY22 guidance and the medium-term growth target caused the -11% share price fall on the day of the AGM, believes the analyst. It's thought the company will meet the upper-end of guidance, given traditionally conservative outlook statements.

The broker retains its Buy rating and lowers its target price to $3 from $3.15.

The report was first published on November 11, 2021.

Target price is $3.00 Current Price is $1.81 Difference: $1.19

PPH    PUSHPAY HOLDINGS LIMITED

Software & Services – Overnight Price: $1.44

Shaw and Partners rates ((PPH)) as Hold (3) –

Following a soft first half for FY22, Pushpay Holdings has decreased full-year underlying earnings guidance by -6%, with Shaw and Partners noting performance in the core donor management business appears to be a driver of results. 

The broker reduces underlying earnings forecasts by -15-18% through to FY24 and sits below the bottom-end of range for FY22, noting rising wage pressures continue to push staffing costs higher. 

The Hold rating is retained and the target price decreases to $1.55 from $2.05.

RHC    RAMSAY HEALTH CARE LIMITED

Healthcare services – Overnight Price: $68.58

Jarden rates ((RHC)) as Buy (1) –

The surprise for Jarden in Q1 unaudited results released by Ramsay Health Care was a decline in earnings (EBIT) versus the previous corresponding period of -115.9% for the UK and -45.4% for Europe. However, covid-specific issues are expected to abate over time.

The broker maintains its Buy rating though lowers FY22-24 EPS estimates by -16.6%, -3.2% and -2.8%, respectively. This effectively delays the recovery by 6 to 12 months, explains the analyst. The target price falls to $84.30 from $87.70.

Jarden points out increased Q1 labour costs were a factor, as isolation orders impacted staffing.

This report was published on November 12, 2021.

Shaw and Partners notes Shaver Shop Group's year-to-date sales growth of 7.2% despite lockdown impacts in key states that saw more than -6,100 trading days lost, is a very positive result for the company.

XRO    XERO LIMITED

Accountancy – Overnight Price: $145.84

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

The 1H result by Xero was marginally below Goldman Sachs' expectations, with weaker International net adds and growth in average return per user (ARPU) offset by lower churn and improving total lifetime value (LTV).

The analyst highlights management's plans for price rises in the US and the rest of the world (RoW), and upside risk in the terminal penetration assumptions from subscriber strength in A&NZ.

The Buy rating is retained and the target price decreases to $158 from $165.

This report was published on November 11, 2021. 

Target price is $158.00 Current Price is $145.84 Difference: $12.16

Jarden rates ((XRO)) as Buy (1) –

Jarden's core investment thesis remains unchanged, despite Xero's 1H result being a miss versus consensus forecasts. More positively, subscriptions and costs (sales and marketing) were better than the analyst had expected.

The broker lifts its revenue estimates due to stronger subscriptions across all markets, partially offset by lower average revenue per user (ARPU). 

Jarden expects merger and acquisition to accelerate as the company embeds past acquisitions. The Buy rating and $150 target are retained.

This report was published on November 11, 2021.

Target price is $150.00 Current Price is $145.84 Difference: $4.16

Wilsons rates ((XRO)) as Upgrade to Overweight from Market Weight (1) –

After Xero's recent share price weakness and following 1H results, Wilsons lifts its rating to Overweight from Market Weight and raises its target price to $156.82 from $107.54. This increase is largely driven by a roll forward of the financial model and increasing multiples.

Annualised monthly recurring revenue (AMRR) rose by 29% on the previous corresponding period, which reflects 23% subscriber growth, explains the analyst. Growth in average revenue per user (ARPU) was more than 5%.
