Broker Rating Changes (Post Thursday Last Week)

ACCENT GROUP LIMITED ((AX1)) Downgrade to Neutral from Overweight by Jarden.B/H/S: 0/0/0

Jarden noted Accent Group’s trading update was disappointing, and it will be a wait-and-watch for the operating environment to improve as the benefits of interest rate cuts flow through.

The company’s like-for-like sales fell -1% y/y in the first 23 weeks of 2H25 vs the consensus of 1.9% y/y for 2H25. Gross profit margin fell -80bps vs consensus for around 100bps improvement in 2H25 due to soft demand and higher promotional activity.

The broker lowered FY25 EBIT by -19% and FY26-27 by -26%.

Target price cut to $1.55 from $2.13. Rating downgraded to Neutral from Overweight.

AV1    ADVERITAS LIMITED

Overnight Price: $0.10 

Taylor Collison rates ((AV1)) as Initiation of coverage with Speculative Buy (1)

Back on June 6, Taylor Collison initiated coverage on Adveritas, highlighting its TrafficGuard (SaaS) platform as a proactive solution to digital advertising fraud (invalid traffic and advertising). The analyst began with a Speculative Buy rating and 17c target.

The platform provides real-time protection across Google Ads, mobile, affiliate, and social channels, helping marketers eliminate waste and optimise acquisition efficiency, explains the analyst.

The broker sees a strong commercial inflection point, with multi-year SaaS contracts, rising annual contract value, and agency distribution underpinning 61% year-on-year annual recurring revenue (ARR) growth.

Management recently secured its first $1m annual contract value (ACV) deal and first agency contract, validating its value proposition, according to the broker.

It’s also thought the deal helps open scalable enterprise access across sectors like ecommerce and legal.

BRE    BRAZILIAN RARE EARTHS LIMITED

Rare Earth Minerals Overnight Price: $2.26 

Canaccord Genuity rates ((BRE)) as Buy (1)

Brazilian Rare Earths published the follow-up test work on the Monte Alto deposits, which confirmed valuable by-products could be obtained when extracting uranium.

Based on the results, Canaccord Genuity now sees a case for the company to pursue production of separated RE oxides, given their high grades.

This also means the scoping study will be pushed back to the end of 2025 or early 2026 to allow time to incorporate the new results.

Buy. Target unchanged at $5.

The company’s FY25 EBITDA guidance of $42-43m is 1% above Jarden’s at the midpoint. Additionally, the company flagged scope for margin improvement in China.

THL    TOURISM HOLDINGS LIMITED

Travel, Leisure & Tourism Overnight Price: $2.13 

Wilsons rates ((THL)) as Market Weight (3)

BGH Capital, together with the Trouchet family, has proposed an all-cash offer for Tourism Holdings Rentals at NZ$2.30 per share. This level is a 67% premium to the 10-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) but below the stock’s pre-2024 range, notes Wilsons.

The proposal reflects the company’s intrinsic value, suggests the broker, but management may determine the offer undervalues long-term potential, especially given recent weakness in RV sales.

The board has established a subcommittee to assess the non-binding proposal while the executive linked to the offer has stepped aside.

No updates have been made to financial forecasts, and the broker assumes no control premium in its valuation.

Wilsons raises its target price to $2.18 from $1.25 and retains a Market Weight rating.

This report was published on June 17, 2025.

Target price is $2.18 Current Price is $2.13 Difference: $0.05
If THL meets the Wilsons target it will return approximately 2% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $1.73, suggesting downside of -18.8%(ex-dividends)
The company’s fiscal year ends in June.

Forecast for FY25:

Wilsons forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 4.01 cents and EPS of 13.68 cents.
At the last closing share price the estimated dividend yield is 1.88%.
At the last closing share price the stock’s estimated Price to Earnings Ratio (PER) is 15.57.

How do these forecasts compare to market consensus projections?

Current consensus EPS estimate is 18.4, implying annual growth of N/A.
Current consensus DPS estimate is 7.1, implying a prospective dividend yield of 3.3%.
