Outperform

$33.60

7.90%

Woolworths Group's Australian Food sales rose by 3.0% in the March quarter, tracking just behind Coles Groups' ((COL)) 3.2% growth, notes Macquarie. Momentum is being supported by volume growth and lower average prices, explains the analyst.

New Zealand Food saw solid comparative growth of 3.8%, highlights the broker, while Big W guidance was cut again. Management now expects a -$70m EBIT loss for Big W in 2H25, prompting the broker to expect a review of the segment.

Macquarie forecasts earnings to bottom in FY25 before rebounding in FY26, with FY27 to benefit from -$400m in cost-out initiatives. EPS forecasts are lowered -2% for FY25 but raised by 1% for FY26 and 7% for FY27 on improved long-term margin assumptions.

The broker retains an Outperform rating and raises the target price to $33.60 from $30.80, citing long-term upside potential despite near-term softness.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 81.30 cents and EPS of 113.00 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 97.00 cents and EPS of 135.00 cents.

Overweight

$36.30

16.57%

Jarden's key question about Woolworths Group is whether it can regain its "category killer status" via sustainably growing share, and the 3Q25 update was positive in that it showed steady share.

The broker notes Big W was a challenge and downgraded forecasts to reflect the guidance of -$70m EBIT loss in 2H, and -$20-25m of costs related to the food business. 

Overweight. Target cut to $36.30 from $37.00.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 88.00 cents and EPS of 113.70 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 114.00 cents and EPS of 147.30 cents.
