UBS rates A2M as Buy (1) -
Evidence suggests a2 Milk's China IMF online market share was up strongly year on year in the June quarter, in a market which continues to grow at a mid-single digit pace despite the virus.

Macquarie rates DXS as Downgrade to Neutral from Outperform (3) -
While Dexus Property should be more resilient than others in the office space, Macquarie believes it is not immune to lower rents due to weaker demand. The broker expects office rents to decline by -15-25%, noting Sydney CBD vacancy increased 7.5% in the six months to June.

More Research Tools In Stock Analysis - click HERE
Overnight Price: $12.76
Citi rates HUB as Buy (1) -
Hub24 saw June quarter net flows of $1.1bn, up 11% year on year and better than estimated by Citi.
Citi reports 110 new advisors started using the specialist platform in the June quarter which is good considering the uncertainty stemming from covid-19.
The broker is cautious about the outlook and expects revenue margins to decline in FY21 due to lower cash levels and cash margin reduction.
Platform cost growth is forecasted to slow to 16% in FY21 which could lead to margin expansion. There is potential for FY21 flows to beat expectations.

Credit Suisse rates HUB as Neutral (3) -
Hub24 reported an increase in funds under administration (FuA) of circa 14% in the June quarter driven by net inflows and positive market movements. The higher inflows indicate a sharper than expected rebound in switching activity, notes Credit Suisse.
The broker reports the specialist platform also signed 34 new distribution agreements with licensees.
Pressure on the revenue margin is expected to ease in the second half. FY21 could be impacted by falling cash allocations, cash fee cuts and competitive front book pricing among other factors, expects the broker.
Hub24 is expected to attract material inflows and win market share despite a challenging environment in the short term, predicts the broker.
Credit Suisse chooses to remain cautious and maintains its Neutral rating with the target price increasing to $12.40 from $12.

Morgans rates HUB as Add (1) -
Stockbroker Morgans found the quarterly update "strong" given disruption from the virus. Advisers using the platform increased 27% year-on-year to 2,066.
The analysts do expect fund flows to slow down from here, also because market conditions remain uncertain. Nevertheless, Hub24 will still reap the benefits from the lagged impact from adviser growth, as well as the ClearView Wealth ((CVW)) white label transition.

Credit Suisse rates S32 as Outperform (1) -
FY20 was challenging, marked by immense commodity price pressure on the top line, comments Credit Suisse.

UBS rates S32 as Buy (1) -
FY20 finished better for South32 than the broker had expected, particularly in virus-impacted coal and manganese.
Production records were broken at some sites in alumina/aluminium and manganese, with Cannington solidly beating guidance. Inventory drawdowns meant sales were ahead of production.
Revenue was nonetheless impacted by lower realised prices and higher costs. Additional cash helped the balance sheet but the broker has pulled back its dividend assumptions given ongoing virus uncertainty. Buy and $2.60 target retained.
Target price is $2.60 Current Price is $2.17 Difference: $0.43
If S32 meets the UBS target it will return approximately 20% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Morgan Stanley rates SGR as Upgrade to Equal-weight from Underweight (3) -
Morgan Stanley reduces FY20-22 earnings forecasts for Star Entertainment Group due to continued restrictions in Sydney.
Headwinds exist in the form of competition from Crown Sydney in FY21 and risk pertaining to its Queensland projects.
Morgan Stanley upgrades its rating to Equal-weight from Under-weight with a target price of $3.30. Industry view: Cautious.

SYD SYDNEY AIRPORT HOLDINGS LIMITED
Infrastructure & Utilities

Overnight Price: $5.40
Macquarie rates SYD as Outperform (1) -
Minimal passenger numbers in the June quarter had Sydney Airport domestic lower than both Brisbane and Perth, the broker notes. Recent developments mean a recovery will be delayed, and volumes will not yet justify the reopening of retail services.
There are opportunities, the broker suggests, in the reuse of Jetbase and the acquisition of Juhi. Long term valuation is unchanged but a return to normal may take four years. Outperform and $6.57 target retained.
Target price is $6.57 Current Price is $5.40 Difference: $1.17

Ord Minnett rates SYD as Lighten (4) -
Sydney Airport’s total passenger numbers (PAX) fell -95% in June, broadly consistent with April and May numbers, notes Ord Minnett.
These passenger numbers, when seen for the first half, show a fall of -56% in domestic and -57% in international (year on year).
The broker expects PAX to remain weak in the second half. Since international traffic generates three times the revenue of domestic traffic, the subdued international traffic numbers will hit the airport hard.
The broker comments that Sydney Airport is a high-quality infrastructure asset that will recover but is currently facing severe headwinds from travel restrictions.
Ord Minnett maintains its Lighten rating with a target price of $5.10.
Target price is $5.10 Current Price is $5.40 Difference: minus $0.3 (current price is over target).

Morgan Stanley notes uncertainty on wagering competition remains and Tabcorp Holdings’ balance sheet continues to look stretched.
The broker has reduced earnings forecasts for FY20-22 to adjust for higher depreciation charges.
Morgan Stanley maintains its Equal-weight rating with the target price increasing to $3.40 from $2.60. Industry view: Cautious.

TLS TELSTRA CORPORATION LIMITED
Telecommunication

Overnight Price: $3.40
UBS rates TLS as Buy (1) -
When Telstra increased its post-paid mobile prices last month, the broker awaited a response from the competition.
Yesterday, Optus suggested it was unlikely to increase prices at this time but did not preclude the possibility at a later stage. The broker sees the move as tactical rather than structural, with price increases not a good idea with the virus still uncontrolled.
The broker believes Telstra would defend market share in any price war but does not see one breaking out. Buy and $3.70 target retained.
Target price is $3.70 Current Price is $3.40 Difference: $0.3
If TLS meets the UBS target it will return approximately 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Credit Suisse rates TPG as Reinitiating coverage with Underperform (5) -
Credit Suisse re-initiates coverage of the new TPG Telecom with an Underperform rating.
The new telecom incorporates the operations of the merged TPG/Vodafone Australia Group and the broker thinks the economic substance of the new telecom is consistent with the way TPG was valued.
Although the telecom has not provided any guidance, it expects a decline in sales of mobile services (both prepaid and postpaid) and lower roaming services.
There will likely be a step down in the company’s FY20 operating income, believes the broker, along with an increase in capital expenditure requirement.
The target price is $7.35.
Target price is $7.35 Current Price is $8.09 Difference: minus $0.74 (current price is over target).
If TPG meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately minus 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Overnight Price: $3.63
Macquarie rates TYR as Underperform (5) -
Ahead of the result release, the broker reviews total transaction value expectations and payment trends for Tyro Payments. The less pronounced lockdown since Easter drove a total transaction value (TTV) recovery, but second wave risk remains.
Cash-to-card is helping TTVs, the broker notes, but coming via low margin debit cards. The broker remains cautious on the outlook and retains Underperform. Target rises to $2.65 from $2.50.
Target price is $2.65 Current Price is $3.63 Difference: minus $0.98 (current price is over target).
If TYR meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately minus 27% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Ord Minnett rates TYR as Accumulate (2) -
Tyro Payments indicated a deceleration in its transaction value growth to 9% (year on year) for the week ending July 17. Ord Minnett believes this was driven by Melbourne’s return to lockdown.
On the bright side, July month to date comparables increased by 17% (year on year). Also, the broker points out app downloads and utilisation seem to be tracking well.
Ord Minnett reiterates its Accumulate rating with a target price of $4.15.
Target price is $4.15 Current Price is $3.63 Difference: $0.52
If TYR meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately 14% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Macquarie rates URW as Neutral (3) -
The broker has reviewed UR Westfield ahead of its result, forecasting just 75% of cash collection over the June quarter and a -25% decline in asset value, which would take gearing to 49% against a preferred 35%.
Cutting the dividend would not be enough to resolve the issue, so the broker believes large asset sales and/or a significant capital raising are needed. With rent fundamentals still offering downside, the broker cuts its target to $4.19 from $7.94. Neutral retained.
Target price is $4.19 Current Price is $4.10 Difference: $0.09
If URW meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately 2% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Ord Minnett rates WHC as Downgrade to Sell from Hold (5) -
Amidst an oversupplied thermal coal market with coal prices falling -45% year to date, Ord Minnett struggles to find a reason to own Whitehaven Coal.
The broker points out the miner is incurring losses at current prices, has operational issues and is expensive in comparison to global peers.
The company will report its second-half results on August 26th. The broker does not expect any final dividend.
Ord Minnett downgrades its rating to Sell from Hold with the target price decreasing to $1.30 from $2.70.

Ord Minnett rates Z1P as Accumulate (2) -
Zip Co’s most recent update is a tale of two halves with the ANZ business performing in-line with Ord Minnett’s expectations.
The Quadpay business was weaker than anticipated even with customers reaching 1.8m. The broker notes the weaker result was driven by greater conservatism in terms of credit criteria.
Upcoming catalysts include the financial result in August and the completion of the Quadpay transaction.
Ord Minnett retains its Accumulate rating with the target price reducing to $6.45 from $6.75.
Target price is $6.45 Current Price is $6.04 Difference: $0.41
