Macquarie rates CWN as Neutral (3) -
Crown Resorts December-half result disappointed Macquarie due to covid.
The broker expects earnings will recover by mid 2022 and anticipates Crown Sydney gaming will open in the June quarter.
But the result is fairly academic given Macquarie sees little risk of the Blackstone $13.10 takeover not proceeding, the broker expecting the gap between the share price and takeover price will narrow once regulatory approval is received.

CWY CLEANAWAY WASTE MANAGEMENT LIMITED
Industrial Sector Contractors & Engineers
More Research Tools In Stock Analysis - click HERE
Overnight Price: $2.91
UBS rates CWY as Neutral (3) -
While Cleanaway Waste Management presented another strong result, UBS's opinion is that while acquisition has been leveraged for growth, with recent acquisitions driving 7% a compound annual growth rate between FY21-23, it is time to pursue other growth avenues.
The core business is largely captured in share price, and the broker notes the waste to energy sector provides significant opportunity but processes, capital expenditure intensity and time frames offer little uplift to valuation in the near-term.
The Neutral rating is retained and the target price increases to $2.95 from $2.35.
Target price is $2.95 Current Price is $2.91 Difference: $0.04

Overnight Price: $0.89
UBS rates HUM as Buy (1) -
Humm Group has entered into a binding agreement for the $335m sale of its Humm Consumer Finance business to Latitude Group Holdings ((LFS)). The segment contributed 67% of group profit in FY21 and 45% of group profit in the first half of FY22.
The sale leaves Humm Group a pure-play commercial business, and proceeds from the sale will be used to close a $55m perpetual note with the remainder flagged for reinvestment and capital management initiatives.
Latitude Group intends to combine its purchase with the company's existing buy now pay later and installments businesses.
The Buy rating and target price of $1.45 are retained.

Overnight Price: $3.35
Citi rates ING as Buy (1) -
Inghams Group's December-half result disappointed Citi, the omicron hit proving worse than forecast, and the broker cuts its FY22 earnings EBITDA forecast -5%.
Citi expects most of the labour disruption will be contained to the March quarter and assumes a recovery in the FY23 December half.
Management has guided to higher feed prices this half but the broker expects the company can pass much of this on through prices.
Target price falls to $3.70 from $4. Buy rating retained.

Credit Suisse rates ING as Outperform (1) -
Inghams Group's 1.8% year on year earnings increase in the first half compared to Credit Suisse' forecast of a -0.9% decline. However this is overshadowed by an earnings decline in the second half to date as omicron disruptions impact heavily.
The broker thus expects a very weak second half before impacts can unwind, but admits forecasting is risky. The balance sheet is nonetheless strong enough to absorb short term pressures, and the stock is offering value ahead of an FY23 earnings rebound.
Target falls to $4.05 from $4.15, Outperform retained.
Target price is $4.05 Current Price is $3.35 Difference: $0.7

Macquarie rates ING as Neutral (3) -
Inghams Group's December-half profit outpaced the broker and consensus thanks to non-visible operational items, but met the broker at the earnings level.
Guidance had already been downgraded twice prior to the result to account for covid disruptions, which have persevered into the opening months of the June half, suggesting the business has been operating at loss so far this year.
Management has discerned a very recent improvement, which the broker expects will continue and notes the company's balance sheet should easily carry it through.
FY22 EPS forecasts fall -35%; FY23 -5%; and FY24 -5%.
Target price falls to $3.38 from $3.46. Neutral rating retained.

Morgans rates ING as Hold (3) -
While Inghams 1H results materially beat expectations, Morgans lowers its forward estimates as the 2H impact of the omicron variant weighs. The target falls to $3.62 from $3.70 and the Hold rating is maintained, on near-term covid uncertainty and elevated feed prices.
Management highlighted the workforce still isn’t fully back, a tight labour market is making new hiring difficult and there is wage inflation. Omicron is also emerging in New Zealand and impacting operations and the same is expected for Western Australia upon reopening.

Macquarie rates IPL as Outperform (1) -
Incitec Pivot has shut operations at its Waggaman Ammonia Plant after a malfunction caused a high-pressure gas pipe to burst and ignite.
So far there is no evidence of chemical releases or injuries, although a more thorough investigation is under way.
The company has yet to determine a timeframe for re-starting, although history suggests re-starts take about three weeks, says Macquarie.
The broker perceives the main risk to be in the event the shutdown stops the company from fully leveraging the ammonia cycle while prices are strong.
For now, FY22 EPS forecasts fall -2%. Target price is steady at $4.10. Outperform rating retained.
Target price is $4.10 Current Price is $3.06 Difference: $1.04

Following a 1H result from Lindsay Australia that exceeded Ord Minnett's forecasts, and an upgrade to the outlook, the target price rises to $0.53 from $0.44. The Buy rating is maintained.
The analyst is expecting a 40% sales increase for FY22 from a return of import/export volumes for the Lindsay Fresh business. Capacity utilisation and price is also expected to be supported by tight general freight conditions across the corporate and horticultural sectors.

Store closures and reduced foot traffic have driven UBS to reduce expected first half skew for Lovisa Holdings. The broker has updated its model accordingly and minor changes are made to earnings per share forecasts, decreasing -0.4%, 0.0% and -1.2% through to FY24.
Looking ahead, the broker notes second half comparables will be tough and supply chain constraints and related cost pressures will continue to impact.
The Buy rating is retained and the target price decreases to $20.00 from $21.25.

Overnight Price: $21.70
Credit Suisse rates MFG as Neutral (3) -
Magellan Financial Group's first half profit beat Credit Suisse by 6%, but the core funds management business only beat by 1%, with the rest driven by lower-quality investment income.
A 1-8 bonus issue of options for shareholders was announced, and the board is also considering a share buyback.
The broker remains Neutral given valuation support, and upside risk from profitable associate Barrenjoey, but expects further negative catalysts in the near term. Taking into account a buyback, target rises to $20.00 from $16.50.
Target price is $20.00 Current Price is $21.70 Difference: minus $1.7 (current price is over target).
If MFG meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately minus 8% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Macquarie rates MFG as Downgrade to Underperform from Neutral (5) -
Magellan Financial Group's December-half result outpaced Macquarie's forecasts, thanks to a beat on fee margins and profits (partly from Barrenjoey).
Macquarie upgrades outer year earnings by roughly 3% to reflect the fee beat.
Magellan Financial is toying with capital management options, but the broker considers them to be out of the money and hasn't incorporated them into estimates.
EPS forecasts rise 6% for FY22; 3.1% for FY23; and 4.6% for FY24.
Macquarie downgrades the rating to Underperform from Neutral, believing the chance of further downgrades from potential outflows outweighs the scope for earnings upgrades. Target price is $19.25.
Target price is $19.25 Current Price is $21.70 Difference: minus $2.45 (current price is over target).

Morgan Stanley rates MFG as Underweight (5) -
Morgan Stanley remains Underweight on Magellan Financial Group on soft performance, key person risk and the concentration risk of having almost 70% of funds under management from institutional clients.
Following 1H results, the broker lowers its earnings forecasts and the target price falls to $12 from $17.50 as higher estimated outflows drive lower operating leverage.
This reaction comes despite an adjusted 1H profit that beat the broker's and the consensus estimate by 7% and 9% supported by a more profitable half for associates, with Barrenjoey the major contributor.
In short, the analyst feels the stock is too dear with multiples well above peers. Industry View: Attractive.
Target price is $12.00 Current Price is $21.70 Difference: minus $9.7 (current price is over target).
If MFG meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately minus 45% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Morgans rates MFG as Hold (3) -
After recent widely-publicised turmoil, Magellan Financial Group posted a 1H result in-line with Morgans forecasts.
While management gave a business as usual message, further outflows are considered likely (Morgans believes inevitable). The board is considering a buyback, retail fees won't be cut and options issuance was announced for both staff and shareholders.
The broker downgrades FY22-24 EPS estimates by -4%, -15% and -13%, respectively, and sees a negative risk reward outlook. Hold retained. Target falls to $21.87 from $24.73.

Ord Minnett rates MFG as Downgrade to Lighten from Hold (4) -
Mindful of substantial pressures facing Magellan Financial Group, Ord Minnett lowers its rating to Lighten from Hold. Despite this, the group reported a 6.4% beat versus the analyst's forecast for first-half underlying profit. The target rises to $20 from $16.50.
The broker is cautious of management prediction for no fee cuts, given the extent of investment underperformance and outflows.
The broker feels the $35 exercise price on bonus share options (staff and investors) only serves to create an artificial ceiling for the share price, despite some merits for retention and team stability.
Target price is $20.00 Current Price is $21.70 Difference: minus $1.7 (current price is over target).

UBS rates MFG as Sell (5) -
Following Magellan Financial Group's first half results, which included profit of $248m equating to a 1% beat on UBS's forecast, the company intends to refocus on its core management business and will end further investment in Magellan Capital Partners (MCP).
UBS notes the decision not to allocate capital to MCP could indicate an ultimate exit from the segment, and could support reduced outflows and improve returns to clients but the company's recommitment to its high retail fees may present a barrier to this.
The Sell rating and $17 target price are retained.

Orora's December-half result beat consensus and Citi's forecasts by 10%, and the broker notes that business has stabilised, which traditionally augurs well for packaging companies, and upgrades to Buy from Neutral.
Citi tempers optimism, however, noting areas are only just delivering profit at the earnings (EBIT) level; can supply is constrained; and the company appears to be trading at capacity.
Target price rises to $4.07 from $3.35.

Morgans rates ORG as Downgrade to Hold from Add (3) -
In advance of weekend news of a potential takeover for Origin Energy, Morgans penned new research that leads to a downgrade in rating to Hold from Add on valuation considerations.
The downgrade arose after the broker lowered its target price by -5% to $6.23 in reaction to a 1H underlying profit that came in less than expected. Moreover, more caution is warranted after the uncertainty introduced upon the brought-forward closure of the Eraring coal plant.
Management guidance for FY22 earnings (EBITDA) rose by 5% on strong commodity pricing for APLNG.
Target price is $6.23 Current Price is $5.65 Difference: $0.58

UBS rates ORG as Buy (1) -
Despite Origin Energy's first half profit of $268m missing consensus forecasts of $354m, the company upgraded Australia Pacific LNG cash distribution guidance to more than $1.1bn, which remains below UBS's forecast fo $1.3bn.
The company intends to accelerate the closure of the Eraring power station to August 2025, previously slated for staggered closure between 2029-2032, with some project capacity to be replaced with a battery model that UBS expects will attract broader investors.
The broker expects the proposed battery project could add around $110m annually to earnings, and Origin Energy will continue to benefit from rising electricity and gas pricing.
The Buy rating is retained and the target price increases to $6.65 from $6.60.

Ord Minnett praises both a solid 1H result for PeopleIn and a dividend that exceeded expectations. Rising billable hours in the Technology and Industrial segments offset a benign Health and Community result, due to 1Q workplace constraints in Sydney and Melbourne.
With the latter now alleviated, the analyst believes FY22 earnings are achievable. The Buy rating is maintained, while the target price slips to $4.60 from $5.03, following acquisition adjustments and new shares on issue.

Citi rates QBE as Buy (1) -
QBE Insurance Group's FY21 result sharply missed consensus and Citi forecasts but largely due to a very conservative stance on provisioning for potential inflation, says the broker. Citi also perceived guidance to be conservative.
Beneath that, the company posted strong premium growth, rate increases outstripping claims inflation,
Citi expects the company should continue to benefit from rising interest rates and has an opportunity to optimise asset allocation.
Buy rating retained. Target price falls to $13.70 from $14.55.

Macquarie rates QBE as Outperform (1) -
QBE Insurance's FY22 full-year result pleased Macquarie, management offering guidance that the broker considers to be conservative.
The broker posits that management is implementing rebasing measures, banking money while the sun shines or "hollow-logging".
The company upped the catastrophe allowance, seriously strengthened reserves and reduced the payout ratio, setting the stage for growth measures.
Premiums rate growth is outstripping claims inflation and bond yields are improving, and the broker expects both trends to continue.
FY22 EPS forecasts fall -20.5% to reflect the reserve strengthening; and 3% to 2% thereafter.
Target price falls to $13.50 from $13.90. Outperform rating retained.
Target price is $13.50 Current Price is $11.55 Difference: $1.95

Morgan Stanley rates QBE as Overweight (1) -
While QBE Insurance Group's FY21 results missed versus Morgan Stanley's estimates, the broker lifts its target price to $14.50 from $14.15, due to tailwinds from higher premiums and interest rates.
While the group is increasing its budget for catastrophe and large claims insurance, the broker estimates the impact will be offset by better than expected pricing that began to emerge in the 2H of 2021.
As guidance is for gross written premium (GWP) growth of high single digits, the analyst upgrades forecasts by 10%. Overweight. Industry View: Attractive.
Target price is $14.50 Current Price is $11.55 Difference: $2.95

Morgans rates QBE as Add (1) -
Following FY21 results for QBE Insurance Group that were -10% below the consensus estimate, Morgans lowers FY22 and FY23 EPS estimates by -9% and -5%, on lower margin assumptions.
The broker feels the miss was largely driven by one-off factors for claims and reserves. Guidance is for high-single-digit gross written premium (GWP) growth into FY22, and ongoing improvement in the underlying combined operating ratio (COR).
The Add rating is unchanged and the target price falls to $13.50 from $14.32.

Ord Minnett rates QBE as Upgrade to Buy from Accumulate (1) -
While QBE Insurance Group's FY21 underlying profit was -1.6% shy of Ord Minnett's forecast, strong rate and growth written premium (GWP) momentum was in evidence. As momentum is expected to continue in 2022, the rating increases to Buy from Accumulate.
The analyst believes new management will seek a more stable earnings trajectory, which probably means more measured, but more sustainable, improvements for margins.
While guidance has been reset for only modest improvement, the analyst believes it is somewhat conservative in relation to margins. The target price of $15.50 is unchanged.
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.

UBS rates QBE as Buy (1) -
QBE Insurance Group delivered a miss on full year results driven by reserving charges that reduced margins by 2.1%. Further, UBS notes FY22 margin guidance has disappointed but that there were positive features in the result despite short-term headwinds.

Macquarie rates SIQ as Neutral (3) -
Smartgroup Corporation's December-half result outpaced Macquarie's forecasts by 3.5%, half of which was attributable to a $1.2m one-off revenue and $0.7m provision release, and the balance largely to strong margins.
It was a strong result across the board that inspired confidence. The company renewed all eight of its major contracts expiring in FY21. Lead conversions jumped from 2% to 29%, and digital lead conversions to 44% and management guides to further rises in FY22 as restrictions ease.
Looking ahead, novated business increased sharply in the normally quiet month of January but supply chain pressures are likely to continue to hit settlement times.The capital position is solid, supporting growth prospects, says Macquarie.

Morgans rates SIQ as Downgrade to Hold from Add (3) -
Following in-line FY21 results from SmartGroup, Morgans feels the concluded financial year provides a solid baseline earnings level for the business, though vehicle delivery in the current half will be vital. Vehicle orders were impacted by lockdowns in the 2H of 2021.
The broker lowers its rating to Hold from Add on limited upside to valuation. However, a future opportunity to buy may arise post dividend and also when there's more certainty on contract renewals and short-term vehicle supply issues.
The target price slips to $8.78 from $8.80.
Target price is $8.78 Current Price is $8.24 Difference: $0.54
If SIQ meets the Morgans target it will return approximately 7% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $8.48, suggesting upside of 1.0% (ex-dividends)
The company's fiscal year ends in December.

Ord Minnett rates SIQ as Buy (1) -
Despite ongoing new car supply constraints, SmartGroup Corp's FY21 result exceeded Ord Minnett's forecasts. The target price rises to $9.10 from $8.80 due to strong earnings (EBITDA) margins of 46%.
The broker highlights total leasing leads in the last six months were up around 6% versus the previous corresponding period, while orders rose 11%. The latter is considered to provide revenue tail winds over the medium term.
Meanwhile, the Smart Future program is showing some early wins, points out the analyst. The Buy rating is maintained.
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.
Target price is $9.10 Current Price is $8.24 Difference: $0.86
If SIQ meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately 10% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $8.48, suggesting upside of 1.0% (ex-dividends)

Ord Minnett rates TAH as Hold (3) -
Following last weeks 1H result for Tabcorp, and a Gaming & Casinos sector review, Ord Minnett increases its target price to $4.90 from $4.75. It's felt the value creation in the Lotteries division should exceed further Wagering weakness leading into the Lotteries spin-off.
The Hold rating is maintained and the analyst notes that despite an increasingly adverse wagering market, previous offers to buy the Wagering division puts a moderate floor on valuation.
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.
Target price is $4.90 Current Price is $5.25 Difference: minus $0.35 (current price is over target).
If TAH meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately minus 7% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).
Current consensus price target is $5.79, suggesting upside of 12.3% (ex-dividends)

Overnight Price: $2.18
Ord Minnett rates TYR as Buy (1) -
At first glance, Tyro Payments' December-half result outpaced Ord Minnett on revenue and gross profit but margins disappointed thanks to higher-than-expected reinvestment.
The broker reports strong merchant acquisition and service fees but notes investment in operating expenditure was high.
Ord Minnett expects the margin miss could lead to consensus changes.
Target price and rating on hold for now, ahead of a more in depth examination of the result.
Target price is $4.30 Current Price is $2.18 Difference: $2.12
If TYR meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately 97% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $4.13, suggesting upside of 154.6% (ex-dividends)

UBS rates WES as Neutral (3) -
Store closures and higher costs saw Wesfarmers report a -1% sales decrease, -12% earnings decrease and -14% profit decrease in the first half. UBS notes despite results, a dividend of 80 cents per share was more than forecast by the broker.
Operating cashflow was impacted by investment in inventory build, and despite this supply chain pressures are expected to persist into the second half. A conservative second half outlook disappointed UBS.
Earnings per share forecasts decrease -8%, -5% and -7% through to FY24.
The Neutral rating is retained and the target price decreases to $54.00 from $59.00.
Target price is $54.00 Current Price is $50.41 Difference: $3.59
If WES meets the UBS target it will return approximately 7% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
