Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition – Jun 29, 2023

Daily Market Reports | Jun 29 2023

This story features A2 MILK COMPANY LIMITED, and other companies. For more info SHARE ANALYSIS: A2M

An additional news report on the recommendation, valuation, forecast and opinion changes and updates 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.

Food, Beverages & Tobacco – Overnight Price: $3.73

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

Metcash reported FY23 earnings that were slightly below Goldman Sachs estimates. When adding back Project Horizon costs underlying EBIT was slightly ahead of estimates.

Several indicators from guidance show challenges remain in FY24, including negative volumes in food and increased employee expenses.

Jarden rates ((MTS)) as Overweight (2) –

Jarden highlights a solid FY23 result from Metcash, with all divisions ahead of expectations and the trading update stronger than anticipated.

WPR    WAYPOINT REIT LIMITED

REITs – Overnight Price: $2.66

Moelis rates ((WPR)) as Downgrade to Hold from Buy (3) –

Bond markets now imply an RBA cash rate of 4.6% by December, up from 4.1%, observes Moelis, before gradually declining to 4.2% by November 2024.

Given the rising interest rate environment, the broker weighs the impact upon small-and mid-cap real estate exposures under its research coverage. On average, FY24 and FY25 earnings per unit (EPU) fall by -2.0% and -2.4%, respectively.

In general terms, the analysts note the REITs most impacted by higher interest rates have some of the following characteristics: higher gearing, less hedging, lower cap rates and fixed rental increases. Landlords lacking bargaining power with tenants may also suffer from not passing on inflation.

The broker lowers its rating for Waypoint REIT to Hold from Buy and reduces its target to $2.84 from $2.99.

This report was published on June 26, 2023.
