Hold

$22.90

2.55%

Morgans saw Coles Group releasing a "solid" Q1 sales update with Supermarkets in the lead. The news was less positive for the Liquor division where consumers continue to look for value opportunities.

The broker highlights Coles continues to outperform key competitor Woolworths Group ((WOW)) though the gap is narrowing.

Continued Liquor weakness has triggered a small downward adjustment to forecasts. Target reduces to $22.90 from $23.45.

Hold retained as the broker finds the shares look fully valued.

FORECAST
Morgans forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 79.00 cents and EPS of 96.00 cents.
Morgans forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 86.00 cents and EPS of 104.00 cents.

$22.40

0.31%

Coles Group achieved another strong 1Q26, with sales up 3.9% on the previous year, led by food at up 4.8% and around up 7% excluding tobacco.

Jarden notes growth was broad-based across own brand, everyday categories, and online, while liquor remained weak with like-for-like sales down -1.4%.

Coles retained much of the $120m in sales gained from Woolworths Group's ((WOW)) prior strike disruption, though October commentary suggested Woolworths has started to close the sales gap.

Earnings forecasts are largely unchanged, with liquor remaining a drag, and Jarden forecasting a three-year EPS CAGR of 11.5%.

Neutral rated. Target price lifts to $22.40 from $21.70, noting Coles’ strong execution but expecting Woolworths to outperform on share price over the coming year.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 78.00 cents and EPS of 93.90 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 85.00 cents and EPS of 102.80 cents.
