Overnight Price: $13.50
Macquarie rates AMC as Outperform (1) -
Amcor presented at the Macquarie Conference, including an update on Q3. The key take-away, suggest analysts at Macquarie, is that raw material input costs are still rising with operations in Emerging Markets key victims.
Also, North American beverage and closure volumes have remained weak for rigids. The analysts believe all-in-all this calls for a slightly worse outlook than the company suggested in February; to the tune of -2-3% EPS estimate for FY18.
While acknowledging headwinds remain longer in play than initially assumed, Macquarie nevertheless sticks to the view these headwinds are temporary, not structural. A weaker AUD should be a benefit, they add. Outperform rating retained. Price target $16.15.
Target price is $16.15 Current Price is $13.50 Difference: $2.65
If AMC meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately 20% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Current consensus EPS estimate suggests the PER is 16.4. |
Forecast for FY19:
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY19 dividend of 66.10 cents and EPS of 92.67 cents. How do these forecasts compare to market consensus projections? Current consensus EPS estimate is 90.7, implying annual growth of 9.9%. Current consensus DPS estimate is 64.2, implying a prospective dividend yield of 4.8%. Current consensus EPS estimate suggests the PER is 14.9. |

Market Sentiment: 0.4
All consensus data are updated until yesterday. FNArena's consensus calculations require a minimum of three sources
Deutsche Bank rates AMP as Hold (3) -
In the light of the revelations from the Royal Commission into financial services misconduct, the regulator has signalled it may follow up with civil and criminal charges. Deutsche Bank notes the CEO chairman and chief legal counsel have all resigned.
Given the revelations, the broker reduces earnings estimates by -10% for FY20 and lowers the target to $4.00 from $5.20. Hold maintained.
Target price is $4.00 Current Price is $4.05 Difference: minus $0.05 (current price is over target).

Overnight Price: $27.35
Citi rates ANZ as Buy (1) -
Cash earnings in the first half were slightly above Citi's estimates. The broker notes a large number of one-off items relating to divestments obscured the underlying trends. The CET1 ratio is growing rapidly and now at 11%.
The buyback program has begun and Citi expects a combination of dividend increases and buybacks to continue from FY19. Buy rating maintained. Target is raised to $30.50 from $30.00.
Target price is $30.50 Current Price is $27.35 Difference: $3.15

Credit Suisse rates ANZ as Neutral (3) -
Following the first half result Credit Suisse downgrades FY18 estimates by -7% and lowers the target to $28.50 from $31.00. The broker suggests revenue growth is becoming incrementally more difficult amid intense competition. Neutral maintained.
The broker believes an underlying profit downgrade is only saved by a benign bad debt environment. While the bank has some specific levers to address costs and capital management should mean it is relatively well placed, Credit Suisse cannot help but believe the Royal Commission will swamp this in the short term.
Target price is $28.50 Current Price is $27.35 Difference: $1.15
If ANZ meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately 4% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $29.59, suggesting upside of 8.2% (ex-dividends)

Deutsche Bank rates ANZ as Hold (3) -
First half cash net profit was weaker than Deutsche Bank expected. One of the main drivers of the weakness was the non-interest income line, with the market's contribution -7% lower. Operating metrics were more positive and in line with forecasts.
Hold rating maintained. Target is $29.50.
Target price is $29.50 Current Price is $27.35 Difference: $2.15

Macquarie rates ANZ as Outperform (1) -
Cash earnings in the first half were around 2% ahead of Macquarie's forecasts, largely supported by a lower impairment charge. While the FY19 cash earnings outlook appears weak, the broker notes a capital surplus offers scope for buybacks.
The broker continues to envisage longer-term value as the bank simplifies its business and manages expenses better than peers. Outperform rating and $30 target maintained.
Target price is $30.00 Current Price is $27.35 Difference: $2.65
If ANZ meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately 10% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Morgan Stanley rates ANZ as Equal-weight (3) -
ANZ's first half results were pleasing to Morgan Stanley, reinforcing the broker's view that the bank's strong capital position, business mix and strategy provides more scope than peers to navigate the challenges facing Australian banks.
The bank remains the broker's top pick in the sector, however, revenue headwinds drive a -1%-2% drop in earnings estimates beyond FY18.
Rating is Equal-weight. Target is raised to $29 from $28.90. Sector view is In-Line.
Target price is $29.00 Current Price is $27.35 Difference: $1.65

Ord Minnett rates ANZ as Accumulate (2) -
First half cash earnings were -3% below Ord Minnett's forecasts. The broker believes the bank is making good progress on the factors that support a positive view on the stock, such as cost controls and improvement in risk-adjusted returns.
Accumulate maintained. Target is $31.20.
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.
Target price is $31.20 Current Price is $27.35 Difference: $3.85

UBS rates ANZ as Neutral (3) -
ANZ's simplification process is progressing but this is making it difficult for the analyst to compare like for like in the bank's earnings result. The conclusion is underlying flat profit.
The broker believes ANZ is being more realistic than peers in declaring the "golden period" to be over. Credit standards are tightening and credit growth is slowing. The broker expects revenue growth to be very subdued going forward and hence the bank will focus on cost reductions and capital management.
Target falls to $28 from $29. Neutral retained.
Target price is $28.00 Current Price is $27.35 Difference: $0.65
If ANZ meets the UBS target it will return approximately 2% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Overnight Price: $60.46
Citi rates ASX as Neutral (3) -
March quarter results were stronger than expected and Citi nudges up estimates by 1%. While the business remains solid and disappointment risk appears very low, the broker still considers the stock is expensive.
Neutral rating maintained and the target is raised to $57.85 from $56.75. Citi still believes the introduction of DLT technology to replace CHESS is the most exciting growth option.
Target price is $57.85 Current Price is $60.46 Difference: minus $2.61 (current price is over target).
If ASX meets the Citi target it will return approximately minus 4% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Macquarie rates ASX as Underperform (5) -
Macquarie observes the March quarter was unseasonably strong, aided by increased market volatility and improved equity market volumes.
The company has updated capital expenditure guidance, expected to be around $70m in FY19. The increase - FY18 capital expenditure is unchanged at $50m - is driven by an additional $20-25m over two years from the secondary data centre upgrade and an acceleration of the existing program.
Underperform maintained. Target rises to $54.00 from $52.67.
Target price is $54.00 Current Price is $60.46 Difference: minus $6.46 (current price is over target).
If ASX meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately minus 11% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Morgans rates ASX as Reduce (5) -
The company's market update indicated a strong performance in the March quarter. Management has announced plans to accelerate investment in systems and infrastructure.
Morgans believes the stock is performing well and slowly improving the market's perception of long-term revenue growth. Nevertheless, the broker is cautious believing the current multiple is unwarranted by the growth profile.
Reduce maintained. Target is lowered to $52.56 from $52.67.
Target price is $52.56 Current Price is $60.46 Difference: minus $7.9 (current price is over target).
If ASX meets the Morgans target it will return approximately minus 13% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

UBS rates IGO as Neutral (3) -
Independence has reported weak production at Nova, Tropicana and Jaguar in the March Q, leading the broker to suggest, at best, only the low end of the FY18 guidance range will be reached. Of particular note was a steeper than expected decline in Tropicana grades.
FY18 guidance is unchanged but the broker believes market caution will rise. Independence has to demonstrate operational efficiency to justify its premium. A bullish outlook on exploration and nickel prices keeps the broker on Neutral. Target unchanged at $5.10.

Overnight Price: $8.30
Ord Minnett rates LNK as Initiation of coverage with Hold (3) -
Ord Minnett expects reasonable earnings growth of around 7.5% per annum over the next three years, driven by cost savings. Yet the broker believes valuation metrics are full and there is better value elsewhere in the wealth management and general insurance sectors.
The broker initiates coverage with a Hold rating and $8.17 target. Nevertheless, Ord Minnett prefers Link to ASX ((ASX)) and Computershare ((CPU)).
This stock is not covered in-house by Ord Minnett. Instead, the broker whitelabels research by JP Morgan.

March quarter shipments were softer across most assets. Wodgina was affected by weather and port congestion while the iron ore business was impacted by heavier low-grade fines discounts.
The company has announced a formal sale process for a minority stake in Wodgina. Deutsche Bank values the asset at $2bn, including a downstream carbonate plant.
The company has maintained guidance. Hold rating maintained. Target is reduced to $19.00 from $19.50.

Morgan Stanley rates MIN as Overweight (1) -
The Wodgina lithium resource has increased by 20% and the company has indicated plans to sell up to 49% of the project. March quarter lithium shipments missed Morgan Stanley's estimates but volumes are expected to recover.
As iron ore grade discounts persist, the broker sees heightened risk of a miss to iron ore guidance. Should the June quarter ore production and sales be in line with March the broker's FY18 sales estimate would fall -13% to 9.4mt, decreasing EBITDA and EPS by -3%.
Target is $22.50. Overweight retained. Industry view: Attractive.

First quarter industry data showed an improved performance, although Morgans notes growth remains slightly negative. New road motorcycle sales volumes fell -2.6%. This compares to the -10-20% declines experienced across 2017.
Going forward the broker expects a rebound in FY19 as the business should benefit from cycling a weak base, cost reductions and the annualisation of recent acquisitions. A significant insurance impact will also be cycled.
Add rating maintained. Target is reduced to $4.49 from $5.17.

UBS rates NHF as Sell (5) -
Nib reiterated key FY18 guidance metrics at its update. Commentary around the company's capital position suggest to the broker a gradual approach to meeting APRA's new requirements will be taken, rather than an FY19 capital raising.
The broker understands but wonders why nib would wait when stocks requiring capital injections typically trade a deep discounts until the overhang is removed. The need to ultimately raise, and a bearish view on margins beyond FY18, keep the broker on Sell.
Target unchanged at $5.70.

Credit Suisse rates SXL as Outperform (1) -
Credit Suisse found the trading update disappointing as the top-line trend was softer than anticipated. The main culprit appears to be metro radio. The softer second half revenue outlook leads the broker to reduce FY18 estimates for operating earnings by -5%.
Credit Suisse now expects earnings to be down -8% on an underlying basis for the full year. The broker concedes that the ratings bounce for radio at the start of the June quarter has meant momentum has improved, and if this can be maintained it should flow through to revenue in coming months.
Outperform maintained. Target is reduced to $1.25 from $1.30.
