Equal-weight

$0.35

52.17%

Morgan Stanley made more substantial revisions to KMD Brands' forecasts following the 1H25 result. The broker cut the FY25 EBITDA forecast by -40% and by -18% for FY26.

Target price lowered to 35c from 50c. Rating remains Equal-weight.

-------------------------------

KMD Brands' 1H25 EBITDA was in line with consensus, Morgan Stanley notes, but the company flagged gross margin pressure in the short term due to higher competition.

The broker notes direct customer sales for the Kathmandu brand rose 5.2% y/y in the first seven weeks of 2H25 and 0.7% y/y for the Rip Curl brand, but the wholesale market is taking longer to recover. The company is focusing on growing margins in the medium-term.

The broker made minor downward revision to FY25 EPS. Target price of 50c and Equal-weight remains.

FORECAST
Morgan Stanley forecasts a full year FY25 EPS of minus -0.91 cents.
Morgan Stanley forecasts a full year FY26 EPS of 2.74 cents.

Overweight

KMD Brands has downgraded FY25 underlying earnings (EBITDA) guidance to NZ$15-$25m, marking a -60% year-on-year decline at the midpoint and the lowest result in over 15 years, highlights Jarden.

Group gross margins have deteriorated -140bps year-on-year. These have been impacted by heightened discounting, slower Kathmandu winter sales, reintroduced tariffs, and restructuring in the North American surfwear market, explain the analysts.

While Kathmandu sales rebounded 13% year-on-year in early June, year-to-date growth sits at just 0.3%, and wholesale demand remains soft despite signs of improvement, points out the broker.

Jarden lowers sales and margin assumptions across all brands, reducing EBITDA forecasts by -52%/-32%/-16% for FY25–FY27 and 

The broker cuts its target price to NZ45c from NZ55c and maintains an Overweight rating on valuation grounds.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of minus -2.74 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 1.37 cents and EPS of 0.18 cents.
