Competition is strong and lower birth rates remain an ongoing headwind to demand for infant formula, Macquarie adds.
Heading into FY24, the broker expects revenue growth of 8% and does not believe daigou will come back in a material way, despite the return of students and travel. Underperform maintained. Target is $4.65.

Overnight Price: $1.80
UBS rates ADH as Neutral (3) -
Adairs will assume operational control of its National Distribution Centre from DHL starting September 6, 2023 in response to deteriorating customer service and poor cost efficiencies.
The company expects the transition will require capital expenditure to deliver costs savings of $18m or $4m a year from FY25, plus $2m in transition costs.
UBS is disappointed that capex will be required and says FY24 earnings are opaque given the weaker consumer backdrop. Earnings forecasts rise from FY25 onward but fall in FY24.

UBS rates APA as Neutral (3) -
UBS has gone the extra mile with trying to assess the prospects for APA Group's East coast pipeline network, and the overall outcome has been encouraging.
And then there's a big but... the analysts were disappointed to find out the recently commissioned Northern Goldfields Interconnector (NGI) in WA is only 10% contracted for the next 3 years.
The broker considers APA a quality, defensive income stock, but preaches caution for the time being, given risks on the gas front, including longer term from Victorian government policies.
Were APA to be selected as the preferred bidder for Alinta's Pilbara Power Assets a $500m capital raising might be on the cards, plus APA's shares are already trading at a premium versus global peers.

Overnight Price: $20.63
Macquarie rates CCP as Neutral (3) -
Macquarie expects the near-term performance of the US PDL and consumer lending segments will drive growth in FY24. Credit Corp expects the market will remain constrained in terms of volume in Australasia, despite the one-off purchases secured late in FY23.

Target price is $19.30 Current Price is $20.63 Difference: minus $1.33 (current price is over target).

The company's supermarkets are expected to deliver comparable sales of growth of 5.5% in the second half of FY23 while margins are likely to level out in FY24 as food inflation passes its peak.

Citi rates EVT as Downgrade to Neutral from Buy (3) -
Citi is not joining the euphoria stemming from Barbie and Oppenheimer releases and has downgraded EVT Ltd to Neutral from Buy.
The analysts justify their decision through increased risks to EVT’s cinema business, regardless of the large ticket sales because of both movie blockbusters.
The broker cites the ongoing writers and actors’ strike, potentially adversely impacting the box office in 2024/25, on top of a potential slowdown in customer spend on entertainment due to cost-of-living pressures.
Citi remains more positive on the hotel business, but adds here industry data also point to slower growth. Corporate cost out programs could represent downside risk.

Morgans rates FDV as Add (1) -
Group revenue for Frontier Digital Ventures' 2Q fell by -34% on the previous corresponding period due mainly to weakness in the key business Zameen. Ignoring Zameen, revenue actually rose 10%.
Zameen is being impacted by both a challenging economic environment in Pakistan and also a significant appreciation of the Australian dollar versus the Pakistan Rupee, explains the analyst.

Morgans rates M7T as Add (1) -
Morgans is mystified by the overly negative share price reaction to the 4Q cashflow report of Mach7 Technologies after a small miss versus market expectations and guidance for cashflow breakeven.
The miss was largely the result of a one business day lag between a $2.5m invoice transfer and when it appeared in the accounts, explains the analyst. The miss would have been only -$270,000 if the $2.5m was included.
The broker considers it a good time to buy on share price weakness. Add. The target falls to $1.65 from $1.67.

UBS rates NEC as Buy (1) -
UBS conducts a review of the Australian Media Sector. The broker observes advertising markets worsened in the June quarter, the market falling -17% on the previous year. The good news is the broker was expecting a fall of -22% and raises its assumptions accordingly.
But the brakes remain on given weak consumer confidence and business confidence data and the broker expects weakness to persist for six months before the markets start to recover in the next June half, before hitting full stride in FY25.
Nine Entertainment is UBS's top sector pick, the broker appreciating the company's defensive earnings profile and its strong share of revenue in the main TV advertising markets (the most recent OzTam figures showing the company continues to gain market share at the expense of competitors) not to mention its 5.6% dividend. UBS also notes that more than 70% of the company's income comes from digital media.
Buy rating retained. Target price rises to $2.50 from $2.40.

Morgan Stanley rates TPG as Equal-weight (3) -
In the evemt TPG Telecom sells its fibre and enterprise assets, Morgans notes the twin positives of a reduction in debt and the potential return of capital, but suggests the remaining business would be of lesser quality and lower growth.
Management has confirmed an indicative non-binding offer to acquire its Enterprise, Government & Wholesale (EGW) assets plus associated fibre infrastructure for $6.3bn.
Given the company would remain the No 3 mobile network operator in Australia, the sale would result in the loss of some assets viewed as premium by the market (e.g. a significant fibre network)

Ord Minnett rates TPG as Accumulate (2) -
Ord Minnett believes the indicative offer from Vocus for the fixed assets of TPG Telecom is a potential catalysts to unlock the inherent value. The $6.3bn enterprise value offer is estimated to value the fixed line fibre assets at 11.5x EBITDA.
Critically, the broker believes, if a deal ends up being done the current price of the stock still values the rest of the business at 7.2x EBITDA, considered too low given the material earnings recovery potential in both mobile and consumer fixed line operations.
The broker retains an Accumulate rating and $7.40 target.

UBS rates TPG as Neutral (3) -
TPG Telecom is considering a strategic review of its non-mobile assets after Vocus Group (backed by Macquarie Capital) submitted an indicative, highly conditional, non-binding offer to buy the bulk of TPG's Enterprise, Government and Wholesale Assets (excluding mobile wholesale), advised UBS.
The bid also includes the division's fixed infrastrucure assets, such as Vision Network, for roughly $6.3bn.
UBS, which is advising Vocus, says a deal would sharply strengthen TPG's balance sheet and improve its toppy gearing.
The broker expects it could yield a return for shareholders in the region of 9c to 25c a share, assuming a paydown of $3.9bn in debt and the holding of roughly $2.1bn to $2.4bn in cash to fund lease liabilities.
TPG would continue to hold its consumer, active mobile infrastructure and mobile wholesale businesses.
