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.

Gold & Silver – Overnight Price: $0.32

Moelis rates ((A1M)) as Buy (1) –

AIC Mines reported discovery of new mineralised zones at Jericho and confirmation of existing zones at Eloise project in North Queensland.

Moelis notes the results are consistent with known mineralisation, supporting potential mine-life extensions. The broker believes there’s potential for larger resources/reserves and infrastructure is already in place to easily monetise new discoveries.

For patient investors, the stock is seen offering a steadily building strong copper business, in a sector with attractive fundamentals but for short-term investors, the broker sees limited catalysts until 2027.

Buy. Target unchanged at 40c.

AEL    AMPLITUDE ENERGY LIMITED

Crude Oil – Overnight Price: $0.25

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

Amplitude Energy’s FY25 underlying EBITDAX of $173m beat Canaccord Genuity’s forecast of $166m, but was in line with the consensus. Underlying net profit was in line with both.

FY26 production guidance of 69-74 TJ/day slightly missed the broker’s estimate but there’s upside risk from a potential increase in nameplate capacity which the company is seeking regulatory approval for.

Expense guidance and capex were lower than the broker’s forecast, indicating incremental improvement in FY26 EBITDAX.

Commentary concludes the East Coast Gas Supply project is progressing well, with first gas targeted in 2028. Buy. Target unchanged at 34c.

APA    APA GROUP

Infrastructure & Utilities – Overnight Price: $8.77

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

Jarden notes APA Group has given up its ambition to become a major east cost transmission developer and will instead refocus on gas. The broker reckons the strategy will be welcomed by the market and is sensible in its view.

The FY25 underlying EBITDA met consensus and came at the top end of guidance. Reported net profit beat the broker’s estimate and consensus, while free cash flow was in line with the broker but 3% ahead of the consensus.

FY26 EBITDA guidance was in line with consensus, though the broker estimates it’s a 1% beat as consensus didn’t factor in recent sale of Networks business.

Overall the broker believes execution risk is reduced, cash flow remains strong, and medium-term EBITDA growth is underpinned by CPI pass-through, new contracts, and cost savings.

Overweight. Target lifted to $9.10 from $8.90 mainly on lower medium-term cost outlook.

This report was published on August 21, 2025.

Target price is $9.10 Current Price is $8.77 Difference: $0.33

At the last closing share price the estimated dividend yield is 6.61%.

ARB    ARB CORPORATION LIMITED

Automobiles & Components – Overnight Price: $40.24

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

ARB Corp’s FY25 sales met Canaccord Genuity’s forecast and the consensus but underlying profit before tax was -5% below expectations due to lower gross margin.

While there were positives in the result, including an acceleration in US sales growth and special dividend, the broker suggests caution. Growth will be positive but only in mid to high single digit, not enough to warrant elevated valuation.

US expansion remains the key driver but total addressable market and growth rates are likely to be more limited vs Australia, the broker highlights. EPS forecast for FY26 trimmed by -6.4% and FY27 by -6.3%.

Hold retained. Target price lifted to $35.60 from $34.70.

This report was published on August 19, 2025.

Target price is $35.60 Current Price is $40.24 Difference: minus $4.64 (current price is over target).

BKT    BLACK ROCK MINING LIMITED

New Battery Elements – Overnight Price: $0.03

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

Petra Capital notes Black Rock Mining’s Mahenge graphite project is shovel ready with all approvals and permits in place, debt funding and some equity from POSCO.

The project stands to benefit from US tariffs and as global market moves away from Chinese pricing. Graphite is an essential input in military drones and the project via POSCO is positioned as a secure supplier.

The broker revised valuation to account for higher debt funding which means lesser equity need, plus updated latest commodity and forex rates.

Target rises to 13c from 11c, with lower equity dilution the main driver. Buy maintained. 

This report was published on August 20, 2025.

Target price is $0.13 Current Price is $0.03 Difference: $0.1

BRG    BREVILLE GROUP LIMITED

Household & Personal Products – Overnight Price: $35.13

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

Jarden assesses Breville Group’s FY25 result as high-quality, reflecting a ‘beat’ on EBIT guidance, new product development, China direct launches and progress on relocating production.

The broker lifted FY26 EBIT forecast by 1% with upside risk on unwind in one-off cost of doing business, and top-line momentum from replacement cycle and new markets.

Overall, though FY26 EBIT is estimated to be -3% lower vs FY25 on tariff impacts, FY27 is expected to normalise with 15% EBIT growth expected.

The broker is forecasting FY26-29 EPS growth at 12% compounded annual rate. Overweight. Target unchanged at $31.

CDA    CODAN LIMITED

Hardware & Equipment – Overnight Price: $28.34

Codan’s FY25 result beat expectations on all metrics, highlights Canaccord Genuity. Underlying net profit grew 29% y/y, beating the broker’s forecast by 8%, and net debt was -26% lower than forecast.

Communications revenue growth was stronger than expected despite some order delays and FY26 guidance is for 15-10% growth.

The metal detection business is entering a “golden period” in the broker’s view, supported by gold price tailwinds and launch of four new products in FY26.

Overall, the broker believes the company is a high-margin growth business, leveraged to multiple structural tailwinds (gold, drones, defence, public safety) with M&A upside still to come.

Cleanaway Waste Management’s FY25 underlying EBIT met consensus and midpoint of guidance, showing improved earnings momentum as EBIT grew17% y/y in 2H vs 12% in 1H. 

The disappointment was in FY26 EBIT guidance of $470-500m range, with the broker highlighting the lower end indicated no organic EBIT growth in FY26. Net finance guidance was also $30m higher vs FY25.

Still, the broker is hopeful of upward revision to guidance as the year progresses, leaving its FY26 EBIT forecast unchanged at $491m. EPS forecast for FY26-27, however, downgraded on higher interest expenses.

DXS    DEXUS

REITs – Overnight Price: $7.54

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

Dexus’ FY25 result met expectations but FY26 guidance for flat AFFO growth was a disappointment, Jarden highlights, given office sentiment has improved over the past six months.

Additionally, the broker notes sector peers are pivoting back to growth. Office portfolio challenges remain, including pressure on returns from holding costs and fixed contracts.

Fund management is a drag too with performance feed guided -$5m lower in FY26 to $35m, -$3bn redemption queue and APAC litigation overhang (court case in Nov).

Jarden rates ((HUB)) as Upgrade to Neutral from Underweight (3) –

Jarden highlights Hub24’s FY25 EPS of 117.8c beat consensus and its forecast by 4.4% due mainly to lower effective tax rate. Underlying EBITDA, however, missed both on softer revenues.

Revenue margins compressed more than expected, though there was some offset from lower cost growth vs revenue growth.

Update on FUA until Aug 14 was higher than expected, prompting the broker to upgrade flow estimates for FY26. Guidance for FY27 FUA was below the broker’s forecast and the consensus, but the broker sees it as conservative.

Target lifted to $97.00 from $84.50 reflecting earnings changes, higher multiples and higher outer year gearing assumption. Rating upgraded to Neutral from Underweight.

Canaccord Genuity notes IPH Ltd’s FY25 underlying group EBITDA was in line with its forecast but a modest miss to consensus. Full-year dividend met expectations.

However, the outlook is not so positive with ongoing Australia/NZ patent filing share decline falling below 30% in FY25 and US filings remain weak.

The broker reckons competitive pressures are rising across Australia/NZ and Asia. FY26 EBITDA estimates trimmed by -5% to $216.9m and EPS forecast lowered by -6%.

JHX    JAMES HARDIE INDUSTRIES PLC

Building Products & Services – Overnight Price: $30.50

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

James Hardie Industries’ 1Q25 sales of US$900m missed consensus by -8%, and adjusted EBITDA margin fell -370bps to 25.1%. Jarden notes the revised FY26 guidance suggests -20% downgrade to consensus adjusted EBITDA forecasts.

The major surprise for the broker was channel destocking with the pace sharper than seen before by the broker. Volume decline reflects the company’s overweight exposure to US Sunbelt market and single-family housing starts, which are very weak currently.

The broker believe the Azek deal is unlikely to be EPS accretive in its first full year — FY27. Balance sheet is a priority with current leverage at 3.5x vs less than 2% target within two years of Azek acquisition.

SEK    SEEK LIMITED

Jobs & Skilled Labour Services – Overnight Price: $28.18

Jarden rates ((SEK)) as Buy (1) –

The highlight of Seek’s FY25 result for Jarden was the acceleration in Australia/NZ yield growth to 16% in 2H from 10% in 1H, and that it was weighted to 4Q.
