This story features AUSSIE BROADBAND LIMITED, and other companies.
For more info SHARE ANALYSIS: ABB

The company is included in ASX200, ASX300 and ALL-ORDS

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.

Telecommunication – Overnight Price: $4.95

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

Aussie Broadband will acquire AGL Telco ((AGL)) and together with the More/Tangerine deal Canaccord Genuity calculates the business will have added 450,000-500,000 subscribers in six months, positioning it as the third-largest NBN service provider in the market.

With the benefit of recent deals and other organic ggrowth, as well as the closure of Buddy, the broker is now forecasting a three-year EBITDA compound growth rate of 22%.

AD8    AUDINATE GROUP LIMITED

Hardware & Equipment – Overnight Price: $3.53

Moelis rates ((AD8)) as Buy (1) –

Moelis contends waning market appetite for investment-led growth and technology has weighed on the Audinate Group share price, yet there is a profitable business underneath its growth ambitions.

The company, having warned previously that operating costs will be 25% higher in FY26, is now suggesting this will be more like 20%. Guidance for gross profit growth of 13-15% has been retained and this implies an acceleration in the second half.

The broker calculates the business needs to deliver 17-21% gross profit uplift in the second half to achieve guidance. 

Moelis reduces cost estimates as a result of the update, which in turn generates an upgrade to underlying EBITDA estimates. Buy rating and $7.08 target.

This report was published on February 16, 2026.

Target price is $7.08 Current Price is $3.53 Difference: $3.55
If AD8 meets the Moelis target it will return approximately 101% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

ASK    ABACUS STORAGE KING

REITs – Overnight Price: $1.56

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

On first inspection, Jarden notes Abacus Storage King’s 1H26 result was slightly softer than expected at the earnings line.

Funds from operations came in at 3.12c versus 3.4c for Jarden and 3.3c consensus, with established portfolio RevPAM growth of 1.5% considered weak relative to portfolio quality, while occupancy eased to 90.5% and WACR to 5.42%.

FY26 distribution guidance was maintained at 6.2c, in line with both Jarden and consensus expectations.

Jarden highlights potential investor focus on funding costs and internalisation progress, amid shifting rate expectations and sector M&A activity.

Overweight. Target $1.65.

This report was published on February 16, 2026.

Target price is $1.65 Current Price is $1.56 Difference: $0.09

AVH    AVITA MEDICAL INC

Pharmaceuticals & Biotech/Lifesciences – Overnight Price: $1.19

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

Canaccord Genuity maintains a Hold rating on Avita Medical with a $1.25 target after 4Q25 results met expectations, and FY26 guidance was consistent with last month’s update.

FY26 revenue guidance of US$80-85m was retained, with Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC) payment levels largely restored, explains the broker. Cost reductions continued and debt was refinanced, though revenue covenants remain tight, in the analysts’ view.

The broker suggests the sales field force can now refocus on driving Recell GO, targeting larger burn cases, and Recell GOmini, a scaled, cost-effective option for full-thickness traumatic injuries.

This report was published on February 16, 2026.

Target price is $1.25 Current Price is $1.19 Difference: $0.06
If AVH meets the Canaccord Genuity target it will return approximately 5% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

AZJ    AURIZON HOLDINGS LIMITED

Transportation & Logistics – Overnight Price: $3.94

Jarden rates ((AZJ)) as Upgrade to Overweight from Neutral (2) –

Aurizon delivered 1H26 Core NPAT of $237m, an 8% beat to consensus, driven by improved Coal and a sharp turnaround in Bulk earnings.

Bulk EBIT more than doubled y/y to $49m, marking the first period of underlying growth in around two years, while Coal EBIT of $192m was well ahead of expectations and de-risked FY26 forecasts.

FY26 EBITDA guidance was maintained at $1,680-1,750m and appears conservative, with Jarden lifting FY26 Core EPS by 3.5% and incorporating a higher circa 90% payout ratio and additional $100m on-market buyback.

The broker highlights improving earnings visibility and lower capex intensity as supportive of stronger free cash flow from FY27.

Jarden upgrades to Overweight from Neutral and raises the target to $3.90 from $3.45.

This report was published on February 16, 2026.

Target price is $3.90 Current Price is $3.94 Difference: minus $0.04 (current price is over target).
If AZJ meets the Jarden target it will return approximately minus 1% (excluding dividends, fees and charges – negative figures indicate an expected loss).
Current consensus price target is $3.42, suggesting downside of -13.2%(ex-dividends)
The company’s fiscal year ends in June.

Forecast for FY26:

Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 22.20 cents and EPS of 25.00 cents.
At the last closing share price the estimated dividend yield is 5.63%.
At the last closing share price the stock’s estimated Price to Earnings Ratio (PER) is 15.76.

Current consensus EPS estimate is 24.6, implying annual growth of 82.2%.

BRE    BRAZILIAN RARE EARTHS LIMITED

Rare Earth Minerals – Overnight Price: $3.95

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

Canaccord Genuity highlights Brazilian Rare Earths’ Monte Alto test work showing greater than 90% process yields, supporting development potential.

This outcome is seen as enhancing feed grades and lowering costs ahead of a maiden mineral resource estimate (MRE) and Scoping Study in mid-2026.

The broker points to favourable metallurgy and integrated refinery potential, with pilot optimisation commencing in June. It’s felt a proposed Amargosa bauxite spin-out could unlock material valuation upside.

Rare earth and bauxite tailwinds strengthen the investment case, the analyst argues, with updated modelling lifting valuation assumptions.

Canaccord retains a Speculative Buy rating and raises its target to $8.00 from $7.30.

This report was published on February 12, 2026.

Target price is $8.00 Current Price is $3.95 Difference: $4.05
If BRE meets the Canaccord Genuity target it will return approximately 103% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Market Sentiment: 1.0
All consensus data are updated until yesterday. FNArena’s consensus calculations require a minimum of three sources

BSL    BLUESCOPE STEEL LIMITED

Steel & Scrap – Overnight Price: $28.00

Jarden rates ((BSL)) as Neutral (3) –

BlueScope Steel’s 1H26 result was slightly ahead of Jarden’s expectations, with strength in North Star offsetting a weaker Australian Steel Products outcome.

While 2H26 EBIT guidance of $620-700m is broadly in line, the analyst flags the inclusion of $76m from the West Dapto property sale implies a 5-6% underlying downgrade across operating businesses, with Australia the key disappointment.

The broker highlights a more aggressive capital management stance under the new CEO, including a higher net debt target of $1.5bn and an ordinary dividend policy lifted to $1.30 pa through the cycle, alongside a flagged $310m buyback through calendar 2026.

Jarden upgrades FY26 EPS by 11% on stronger near-term US spreads, but downgrades FY27-28 on a weaker Australian outlook and higher net interest costs.

Neutral retained and target cut to $29.00 from $32.00.

This report was published on February 17, 2026.

Target price is $29.00 Current Price is $28.00 Difference: $1
If BSL meets the Jarden target it will return approximately 4% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $28.58, suggesting upside of 2.1%(ex-dividends)
The company’s fiscal year ends in June.

BVS    BRAVURA SOLUTIONS LIMITED

Wealth Management & Investments – Overnight Price: $2.02

Canaccord Genuity rates ((BVS)) as Upgrade to Buy from Hold (1) –

Canaccord Genuity, on further contemplation of the Bravura Solutions first half results, upgrades to Buy from Hold and raises the target to $2.73 from $2.00.

Strong cost discipline and improved customer sentiment are  paving the way for a stronger FY26-27 than the broker had expected and revenue estimates are upgraded by 5-6% while cash EBITDA is raised 19-31% across the forecast period.

Earlier, Canaccord Genuity noted Bravura Solutions posted a strong beat across all major revenue and earnings lines, supported by lower cash earnings.

The key for the shares to trade higher should be be the new CEO’s commentary on costs into 2H26, noting some further small headcount reductions seen over the half.

This report was published on February 11, 2026.

Target price is $2.73 Current Price is $2.02 Difference: $0.71

BWP    BWP TRUST

REITs – Overnight Price: $3.80

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

BWP Trust’s 1H26 result came in slightly ahead of expectations, supported by stronger property income rather than any change in distribution guidance. Funds from operations were 9.7c, above both Jarden and consensus, while FY26 DPU guidance was held at 19.41c.

The analyst highlights occupancy at a cyclical low of 96.7% but expects improvement towards around 99% by the end of FY26, alongside an elevated FY26 capex program of -$60-70m which is expected to be accretive once projects complete.

The broker lifts FFO forecasts by 3.1% for FY26, 1.3% for FY27 and 1.2% for FY28 and upgrades the stock to Neutral from Underweight and raises the target price to $3.95 from $3.85.

Moelis rates ((BWP)) as Hold (3) –

Moelis points out rising debts costs will affect the medium term earnings outlook while there should be operating improvements in FY27 as repositioned projects come online.

COH    COCHLEAR LIMITED

Medical Equipment & Devices – Overnight Price: $199.81

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

Cochlear’s 1H26 profit was in line with Canaccord Genuity’s forecast but -5% adrift of the consensus expectation. FY26 guidance of $435-460m was maintained, albeit skewed to the lower end amid FX headwinds, explain the analysts.

The broker notes results for Services have normalised and Acoustics was flat, with the market braced for a downgrade. Attention centres on the Nexa next-generation cochlear implant platform from 2H26, suggests the broker.

Nexa’s upgradeable platform could drive multi-year double-digit device growth, the analysts believe, underpinning medium-term confidence.

Jarden rates ((COH)) as Neutral (3) –

Cochlear’s 1H26 result undershot expectations, with underlying NPAT of $194.8m down -5.2% y/y and below consensus, marking a fourth consecutive miss, Jarden stresses.

Management now expects FY26 NPAT at the bottom of the $435-460m range, with a stronger AUD creating an additional -$30m headwind and gross margin guidance reduced to 73%, partly offset by tighter SG&A control.

The Nexa implant rollout was slower than anticipated due to software and contracting delays, allowing competitors to discount in key developed markets and putting the 10%-plus unit growth target at risk.

Jarden cuts EPS forecasts by -8.7% for FY26, -18.0% for FY27 and -21.1% for FY28, citing revenue pressure, FX headwinds and competitive intensity but retains a Neutral rating and the target price is reduced to $224.00 from $278.51.

The three-year outlook is largely in line with forecasts with slightly lower gold production expected in 2028 and modestly higher costs in 2027 and 2028.

The broker considers 2025 was a strategically constructive year and favours the stock given its consistent operating execution, Balkans-focused asset base and organically funded growth profile. Buy rating and CAD62 target.

Eroad has shifted its strategy back towards Australasia with a focus on electronic road user charging. Moelis does not change short-term estimates but in response to the shift of priority away from North America revises longer term growth estimates for the region.

The broker contends that the business benefits from a home ground advantage in New Zealand, a market set to transform and grow in 2027.

The balance sheet has significantly de-leveraged with the business finishing the first half with cash of $967m. Development of Northparkes has been approved and first ore is expected from the end of FY30.

GQG    GQG PARTNERS INC

Wealth Management & Investments – Overnight Price: $1.76

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

GQG Partners’ 2025 result was broadly as expected, but Jarden argues the investment case remains constrained by accelerating outflows despite recent improvement in relative performance.

FY25 NPAT was slightly ahead of both Jarden and consensus, helped by tighter cost control, while base fees of 48.4bps were broadly in line and performance fees were negligible.

The broker highlights January outflows annualising at around -30% of FUM, with the latest February update implying roughly -US$1bn of net outflows to date, and argues meaningful multi-year outperformance is still required before flows stabilise.

Jarden lifts 2026 EPS by 3%, but trims 2027 by -2% and FY28 by -8% as it builds in a higher outflow track across the medium term and retains a Neutral rating with the target price cut to $1.75 from $2.10.

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

Paladin Energy’s 1H FY26 result was broadly in line with Canaccord Genuity’s expectations, with operations marginally cash flow positive at US$3.3m. Langer Heinrich is viewed as nearing an inflection point as mining and plant ramp-up progress.

The broker points to seven consecutive quarterly production increases, with 2H output expected to drive a FY26 beat. It’s noted net cash strengthened to US$238m, supporting balance sheet flexibility.

With most resources exposed to market pricing, the analysts see strategic leverage to uranium deficits and exploration upside.

Mining – Overnight Price: $0.18

Canaccord Genuity rates ((PEX)) as Downgrade to Hold from Speculative Buy (3) –

Peel Mining has entered into a transformational $214m Scheme of Arrangement, says Canaccord Genuity, under which its Cobar neighbour, Aeris Resources ((AIS)) will acquire 100% of the company.

Canaccord Genuity sees this arrangement as a strategic Cobar consolidation.

The broker notes consideration of 0.3363 Aeris shares plus NewCo stock, implying 19c per share for copper assets and 4.4c for demerged assets. Overall, this represents a 46% premium to the pre-announcement price, highlight the analysts.

PME    PRO MEDICUS LIMITED

Medical Equipment & Devices – Overnight Price: $125.96

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

Following interim results for Pro Medicus, Canaccord Genuity lowers its target to $180.82 from $350.00, partly due to a new take from replacement analyst Madelaine Williams.

The broker’s medium-term revenue downgrades reflect revised assumptions for new contract wins and a more measured pace of market penetration.

Interim revenue of $124.8m rose 28%, though modestly below the analysts’ forecast, while margins expanded. Total contracted value stands at $1.08bn, with the Trinity contract ramping from October 2026.

The business is fundamentally sound, according to the broker, with AI concerns viewed as overstated given long-term contracts and integration optionality.

Competitive dynamics are evolving, the analysts observe, but medium-term growth remains supported by US penetration and adjacent modalities.

This report was published on February 13, 2026.

Target price is $180.82 Current Price is $125.96 Difference: $54.86

WA1    WA1 RESOURCES LIMITED

Industrial Metals – Overnight Price: $15.27

Canaccord Genuity rates ((WA1)) as Speculative Buy (1) –

Canaccord Genuity has analysed the niobium market, which is small-volume and high-value. Niobium features on both the US and EU critical minerals lists.

The broker feels confident there will be an addressable market when WA1 Resources starts production and envisages further upside in growing volumes beyond the base case.

Given the critical nature of the project it is expected to continue receiving strong government support and the broker updates modelling to take into account mining, processing and G&A costs as well as make assumptions on the production costs of ferroniobium.

Target rises to $32 from $28 and a Speculative Buy rating is retained.

This report was published on February 13, 2026.

WBC    WESTPAC BANKING CORPORATION

Banks – Overnight Price: $40.74

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

Westpac’s 1Q26 trading update was solid on the surface, but Jarden argues the stock now enters a higher-risk execution phase as the Unite technology simplification program moves into large-scale customer migrations.

Cash NPAT of $1.9bn represented around 54% of Jarden’s 1H26 estimate, with revenue up 1% and net interest income up 2%, although NIM slipped -1bp to 1.94% as core NIM fell -3bps on competition and a lower rate environment.

Jarden leaves FY26-28 EPS forecasts unchanged and notes capital remains sensitive to the RAMS settlement and the remaining circa $1bn buyback.

The broker warns banking valuations look stretched in a historical contect and retains a Underweight rating, with target price held at $32.00.

This report was published on February 13, 2026.

Target price is $32.00 Current Price is $40.74 Difference: minus $8.74 (current price is over target).
If WBC meets the Jarden target it will return approximately minus 21% (excluding dividends, fees and charges – negative figures indicate an expected loss).

WJL    WEBJET GROUP LIMITED

Travel, Leisure & Tourism – Overnight Price: $0.55

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

Webjet Group has ended takeover discussions with Helloworld ((HLO)) and BGH after no binding proposals emerged, leaving the market refocused on trading momentum and the FY30 strategy, Jarden comments.

Jarden notes FY26 earnings (EBITDA) guidance has been trimmed to $28-29m, around -8% below the prior outlook and modestly below market expectations, with continued weakness in domestic travel offsetting early benefits from the brand relaunch.

Despite softer conditions, the broker sees margin resilience through improving revenue per booking and a better international mix, and highlights a strong 1H26 net cash position of $112m supporting the restart of a $25m buyback.

Jarden cuts FY26-28 NPAT forecasts by -6% to -9% and expects execution and competitive intensity to remain key swing factors, while retaining an Overweight rating. Target is reduced to $1.00 from $1.10.

This report was published on February 13, 2026.
