Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition – Oct 26, 2023

Daily Market Reports | Oct 26 2023

This story features 29METALS LIMITED, and other companies. For more info SHARE ANALYSIS: 29M

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.

Wilsons rates ((AVH)) as Overweight (1) –

Avita Medical has secured $90m of non-dilutive debt financing with OrbiMed, committing to self-commercialise the Vitiligo opportunity and support its burns and trauma division, at an interest of 12% to 13% observes Wilsons.

$40m has been secured immediately, and an additional US$50m has been made available in two US$25m tranches conditional on revenue thresholds being met: US$75m in trailing by June 2025, and US$100m by June 2026. Wilsons doubts the final tranche will be needed.

Management expects Avita's net interest expense, after accounting for interest income, will be 7% to 8%.

Management also confirmed September-quarter revenue of US$13.5m and gross margins outpaced Wilson's forecasts, implying quarter-on-quarter growth of more than 17%, and year-on-year growth of 80%.

CCP    CREDIT CORP GROUP LIMITED

Business & Consumer Credit – Overnight Price: $12.14

Canaccord Genuity rates ((CCP)) as Hold (3) –

Operating performance within Credit Corp’s US purchased debt ledgers business deteriorated into September, leading management to amend its FY24 profit guidance and impair some of the carrying value (-14%) of its US PDL assets.

Canaccord Genuity notes the company recorded year on year collections growth of 10% in July and August and then flat growth in September, but this was below management and market expectations.

This is disappointing, the broker suggests, given the level of capital outlaid into US PDLs in recent years and suggests materially below-par collection efficiency and return on equity. Share price de-rating reflects the level of earnings uncertainty.

Jarden rates ((EVN)) as Neutral (3) –

While the return of Ernest Henry to full production improved operating cash flow, 1Q results for Evolution Mining missed forecasts by Jarden and consensus by -14% and -11%, respectively.

Free cash flow generation was weak, explains the broker, due to a negative shift in working capital and a build in receivables at Ernest Henry.

Management's production and capex guidance is unchanged, though Jarden points out a record performance will be required over the balance of the financial year to meet these targets.

The broker's Neutral rating is unchanged and the target eases to $3.11 from $3.17.

EVT    EVT LIMITED

Travel, Leisure & Tourism – Overnight Price: $10.40

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

As the actors' strike continues impacting on the box office, Jarden expects EVT Ltd's Cinema division will also be negatively affected, offset by a solid near-term outlook for Hotels. A longer-term recovery is still anticipated for Cinemas.

Industry feedback suggests growth in revenue per average room (RevPar) over the remainder of 2023, partly due to growing occupancy in Sydney and strong demand in Melbourne, offset by increased supply, explains the broker.

The target falls to $12.46 from $12.54. Overweight.

EXP    EXPERIENCE CO LIMITED

Travel, Leisure & Tourism – Overnight Price: $0.20

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

Experience Co's trading update was encouraging with solid Sep Q trading continuing into October, and combined with supportive industry anecdotes gives Canaccord Genuity confidence in its forecasts, which call for a sharply improving earnings profile over the next 12-24 months.

Chinese visitation at key experiences spiked during Golden Week. The dynamic has been turning in favour of holiday visitation in recent
months and in the broker's view provides some comfort in the near-term outlook.

Buy and 33c target retained.

This report was published on October 25, 2023.

GOZ    GROWTHPOINT PROPERTIES AUSTRALIA

Infra & Property Developers – Overnight Price: $2.10

Moelis rates ((GOZ)) as Buy (1) –

Growthpoint Properties Australia's portfolio wide occupancy crept 2 percentage points higher to 95% over the September quarter, with the company continuing to make progress on leasing key vacancies at 5 Murray Rose and Sydney Olympic Park. 

Gearing lifted to 37.7%, but Moelis points out this remains at the lower end of target range. The broker finds the company well positioned to endure interest rate headwinds, but warns investors will need to be patient in waiting for a return to a fair value share price.  

The Buy rating is retained and the target price decreases to $3.43 from $3.69.

HDN    HOMECO DAILY NEEDS REIT

REITs – Overnight Price: $1.07

Moelis rates ((HDN)) as Buy (1) –

Consumer spending on furniture and household equipment has declined -12% year-on-year as of August, with Moelis describing the recent weakness in household goods retail as potential "early signs the consumer is starting to crack". 

The broker points out HomeCo Daily Needs REIT may be so far insulated from this given its better quality centres, but sees downside risk ahead and will be paying close attention to tenant quarterlies. 

Despite this, Moelis finds HomeCo Daily Needs REIT a compelling investment, largely driven by its development pipeline. The Buy rating is retained and the target price decreases to $1.35 from $1.43.

This report was published on October 18, 2023.

Mineral Sands – Overnight Price: $7.01

Canaccord Genuity rates ((ILU)) as Sell (5) –

Iluka Resources' Sep Q mineral sands production missed Canaccord Genuity by -12%, with weak zircon and rutile production partially offset by strong synthetic rutile production.

Sales volumes significantly missed expectations with the miss evenly spread across all products, accompanied by a large inventory build, suggesting demand conditions continue to deteriorate.

The broker expects a rebound in sales volumes in the Dec Q but softer demand conditions persist in the near term.

Target falls to $7.00 from $7.90, Sell retained.

IMD    IMDEX LIMITED

Mining Sector Contracting – Overnight Price: $1.63

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

Imdex' Sep Q trading update provided further evidence in Canaccord Genuity's view of recovering revenue growth as well as margin support, at a time when the stock is cheaper than it has been for several years.

The risk to numbers is that exploration budgets for 2024 remain fluid, with the potential for variance each way quite high. However, the early indications are positive, and the broker has not yet factored in an ongoing recovery in the second half.

An acceleration of earnings growth remains uncertain, but a stabilisation of earnings appears clear. Buy and $2.10 target retained.

INA    INGENIA COMMUNITIES GROUP

Aged Care & Seniors – Overnight Price: $3.93

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

It is Goldman Sachs' opinion that the acquisition of Serenitas by Mirvac Group ((MGR)) supports its thesis of the attractive economics and long-term structural growth in land lease. With increasing capital entering the sector, the broker sees room for more players.

The broker retains its Neutral rating on Ingenia Communities, despite it being exposed to the same tailwinds as peers given the company is not a pure play. Ingenia Communities also retains a more complex operating model that has driven recent execution challenges. 

The target price of $4.30 is retained.

This report was published on October 18, 2023.

Jarden rates ((JHX)) as Downgrade to Neutral from Overweight (3) –

Jarden expects James Hardie Industries will deliver on December-quarter guidance but sees no room for upside given the weak US housing market and expects consumers will hold off on renovations and extensions.

The broker shaves June-half and FY25 margin forecasts to reflect low activity, a less favourable product mix (as builders shift to cheaper products) and freight costs.

Jarden now sits -8.7% below FY25 consensus forecasts. The broker suspects a softening economy could augur a further deterioration and observes the company is trading at the highest multiples of all building materials companies under its coverage (partly a reflection on its quality).

Rating is downgraded to Neutral from Overweight. Target price falls to $45.20 from $48.60.

Aged Care & Seniors – Overnight Price: $15.46

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

It is Goldman Sachs' opinion that the acquisition of Serenitas by Mirvac Group ((MGR)) supports its thesis of the attractive economics and long-term structural growth in land lease. With increasing capital entering the sector, the broker sees room for more players.

The broker retains its Buy rating on Lifestyle Communities, noting the deferred fee structure that allows the company to capture more value from its growth pipeline, and visibility and confidence over a settlement ramp up through to FY26.

LNW    LIGHT & WONDER INC

Gaming – Overnight Price: $124.72

Jarden rates ((LNW)) as Buy (1) –

Jarden believes there is upside operational earnings risk for Light & Wonder and Overweight-rated Aristocrat Leisure due to strong gross gaming revenue (GGR) growth, well-funded cashed up casino customers and strong replacement demand.

The broker also sees growth across both Gaming Operations (rental model) and Outright Sales and expects both companies will take market share. The gaming industry is considered strong after ten consecutive quarters of GGR growth, and is arguably resilient

The Buy rating and $136 target are maintained for Light & Wonder.

This report was published on October 20, 2023.

Target price is $136.00 Current Price is $124.72 Difference: $11.28

Moelis rates ((LRK)) as Hold (3) –

Lark Distilling Co has provided further detail around its strategy for brand positioning, price architecture and product distribution at its recent investor day, notably targeting distribution into ten markets by the end of FY26. 

It is Moelis' position that expansion into export markets is crucial to long-term success, and  finds the target achievable. Moelis expects use of distribution partners will keep expansion capital-light, but does expect profitability from exports to be low for the foreseeable future. 

The Hold rating is retained and the target price increases to $1.75 from $1.70.

This report was published on October 18, 2023.

Canaccord Genuity rates ((MAP)) as Speculative Buy (1) –

Microba Life Sciences has announced the acquisition of Invivo Clinical, a UK microbiome testing business, which expands Microba's scale and international presence. Canaccord Genuity views this acquisition positively and as transformational for the company's diagnostics business.

The company sits in a very different position to where it was 12 months ago, the broker notes, now with a major strategic holder and distributor in Sonic Healthcare ((SHL)) and a much broader and deeper presence in the UK market, with the opportunity to expand in Australia, the US and beyond.

Speculative Buy and 44c target retained.

This report was published on October 25, 2023.

Target price is $0.44 Current Price is $0.21 Difference: $0.225

The broker is cautiously optimistic, and looks forward to more consistency in performance around top line growth, gross to net pricing, and operational efficiency in the coming quarters.

Wilsons rates ((MYX)) as Underweight (5) –

Mayne Pharma's September-quarter trading update pleased Wilsons, the broker observing gross-to-net pricing appears to have normalised, and upgrades revenue forecasts.

Wilsons is cautious given volatility and the need for product launches but observes "incredible leverage" in the business given the company's recent underperformance, making small revenue upgrades material.

Rating is upgraded to Market Weight from Underweight. Target price rises 19% to $3.20 from $2.68.

This report was published on October 20, 2023.

Target price is $3.20 Current Price is $3.93 Difference: minus $0.73 (current price is over target).

NCK    NICK SCALI LIMITED

Furniture & Renovation – Overnight Price: $10.88

Jarden rates ((NCK)) as Underweight (4) –

Jarden assesses a solid AGM update by Nick Scali with the written order run-rate improving modestly in August and September.

Management's guidance for $40-42m of 1H profit, while down -31% year-on-year, still exceeded the consensus expectation by around 7%.

The broker forecasts an around -8% fall in 1H revenue, with a moderation in gross margin as higher promotions, a falling currency and easing freight tailwinds weigh.

The target rises to $10.30 from $9.70 on increased medium-term earnings forecasts and the Underweight rating is unchanged, though Jarden is becoming more positive on the outlook.

This report was published on October 20, 2023.

Target price is $10.30 Current Price is $10.88 Difference: minus $0.58 (current price is over target).

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

Nick Scali's AGM net-profit-after-tax guidance missed Wilson's forecasts by -7%.

While the company's September-quarter trading update revealed an improvement in its like-for-like sales run rate over August and September (ahead of the broker), Wilsons finds it hard to get excited given the weak economic outlook and the guidance downgrade.

The broker suspects gross margins could be under pressure given extended promotional periods and observes visibility is becoming increasingly opaque. Foot traffic fell but conversions rose due to "value" offerings.

Market Weight rating retained. Target price falls to $11.30 from $12.20.

This report was published on October 20, 2023.

Target price is $11.30 Current Price is $10.88 Difference: $0.42

NST    NORTHERN STAR RESOURCES LIMITED

Gold & Silver – Overnight Price: $12.10

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

Northern Star Resources' group sales and costs were largely in line with Canaccord Genuity, with the quarter flagged to be a weak one with major planned shutdowns across all three production hubs.

The broker continues to expect a strong recovery over the remainder of the year and forecasts a second half production skew of 53%.

The broker notes both Thunderbox and Pogo plants running at nameplate as well as waste material movements at KCGM remain on track to access high-grade ore.

NWL    NETWEALTH GROUP LIMITED

Wealth Management & Investments – Overnight Price: $12.72

Jarden rates ((NWL)) as Underweight (4) –

Netwealth Group's custodial net flows in the 1Q fell short of expectations held by both Jarden and consensus, with elevated outflows remaining the key issue, particularly across higher net worth clients.

Gross inflows softened materially to $4.7bn after a record prior quarter of $6.2bn, and gross outflows of -$2.7bn remained elevated at 15.3% per annum of funds under administration (FUA).

These outflows reflect market volatility and a shift to off-platform term deposits, suggests the broker, and risks to net flows remain skewed to the downside.

The target edges down to $13.80 from $13.85 and the Underweight rating is unchanged.

This report was published on October 20, 2023.

Target price is $13.80 Current Price is $12.72 Difference: $1.08

Wilsons rates ((NWL)) as Overweight (1) –

Netwealth Group's September-quarter result missed Wilsons's forecast by -2% due to falling equity markets and weak net inflows.

The broker observes outflow rates moderated but remain above historical averages, the group continuing to haemorrhage larger accounts (50% of total September-quarter outflows).

Wilsons expects outflows will ease once the tightening cycle rolls off and remains constructive.

EPS forecast fall -6% to -8% across FY23 to FY26.

Patriot Battery Metals has announced the discovery of a new high-grade zone within its Corvette project in Quebec. The discovery was a part of the first series of drill holes completed at CV13 during the 2023 summer-fall program.

PPS    PRAEMIUM LIMITED

Wealth Management & Investments – Overnight Price: $0.55

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

Praemium reported Sep Q funds under management only marginally below Canaccord Genuity's forecast.

The quarter had been adversely impacted by a -$0.4bn outflow attributable to eight adviser departures from platform clients during the period, including seven from major client in Escala.

The broker notes also that FUA related to Virtual Managed Account admin services increased, reflecting growth in the number of client portfolios accessing portfolio administration & reporting services, and this is before the impact of a meaningful new client in Mercer, as announced in September.

Praemium's Q1 trading update showed signs of ongoing health for gross inflows, notes Wilsons, with outflow rates also suggesting moderation through the quarter.

Software & Services – Overnight Price: $3.57

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

At the company's investor day, ReadyTech Holdings' management highlighted the company's quality and growth opportunities, observes Jarden.

In particular, low churn, rising annual recurring revenue, vertical-specific SaaS offering, and defensive end-market all combined to paint a positive picture as did the company's strong M&A platform.

While Jarden retains its Overweight rating, the broker cuts the target price to $3.65 from $3.89 after downgrading earnings (EBITDA) forecasts to reflect increased operating expenditure related to the IT Vison acquisition and onboarding; and a rebasing of revenue forecasts following the FY23 results.

RFG    RETAIL FOOD GROUP LIMITED

Food, Beverages & Tobacco – Overnight Price: $0.05

Petra Capital rates ((RFG)) as Buy (1) –

Petra Capital highlights building the portfolio of corporate stores, which now account for around 16% of group revenue, is an underplayed aspect of Retail Food's growth strategy.

As a result of these corporate stores, a greater slice of network sales is now expected to fall to the earnings (EBITDA) line in the P&L statement.

Apart from greater profitability (and higher risk) compared to franchisee stores, operating corporate stores helps set a retail standard across the group and aides testing of new initiates prior to a roll-out to franchisees, explains the broker.

Additionally, the analyst highlights this policy allows retention of good sites when franchisees decide not to renew, and also provides direct access/exposure to end customers.

The Buy rating and 9c target are unchanged.

This report was published on October 20, 2023.

Target price is $0.09 Current Price is $0.05 Difference: $0.043

Pharmaceuticals & Biotech/Lifesciences – Overnight Price: $8.94

Jarden rates ((TLX)) as Buy (1) –

Telix Pharmaceuticals' September-quarter revenue appears to have missed Jarden's forecasts, although revenue by -4.5%, suggesting an acceleration will be required to meet guidance, says the broker.
