Overnight Price: $0.11

Morgans observes Battery Minerals is the first ASX-listed company to complete a pre-feasibility on the production of purified spherical graphite, from its pilot plant in the US.
The broker initiates coverage with a speculative Add rating and 23c target. The broker believes the recent share price decline contradicts the significant progress being made by the company to become a supplier of battery anode material.

Citi rates BPT as Upgrade to Neutral from Sell (3) -
Citi analysts have upgraded to Neutral/High Risk, inspired by a significant fall in the share price. Price target price gained 9% to $0.80.
The released interim performance proved better-than-expected. The analysts point at the non-recurring tax benefit, as well as the fact management kept FY17 guidance unchanged.
Citi analysts suggest it remains an open question whether management can add shareholder value through M&A, as is its current focus.
Target price is $0.80 Current Price is $0.72 Difference: $0.085
If BPT meets the Citi target it will return approximately 12% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Credit Suisse rates BPT as Outperform (1) -
Beach posted a big tax-related beat on profit but also beat on underlying earnings, leading the broker to upgrade forecasts. Cash generation remains the most impressive aspect, the broker suggests.
The broker sees Beach as a key pick in the space given a strong balance sheet providing for both M&A capacity (the broker would like to see Origin's ((ORG)) upstream spin-off acquired) and ongoing exploration. Outperform and 70c target retained.
Target price is $0.70 Current Price is $0.72 Difference: minus $0.015 (current price is over target).
If BPT meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately minus 2% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Market Sentiment: -0.2
All consensus data are updated until yesterday. FNArena's consensus calculations require a minimum of three sources
Macquarie rates BPT as Underperform (5) -
Underlying net profit was ahead of forecasts in the first half. This was on the back of lower-than-expected tax.
Macquarie believes the company is doing a good job of generating cash from its Western Flank assets. A modest interim dividend was reinstated.
The main negative is the decline in oil production rates from the second half. The broker is positive that management will address reserve growth internally while waiting for value-accretive acquisitions to arrive. Underperform retained. Target is 50c.
Target price is $0.50 Current Price is $0.72 Difference: minus $0.215 (current price is over target).

Market Sentiment: -0.2
All consensus data are updated until yesterday. FNArena's consensus calculations require a minimum of three sources
Morgan Stanley rates BPT as Equal-weight (3) -
Morgan Stanley expects the company to benefit from further cost reductions. At some point, oil production is expected to start declining quickly unless there is outsized exploration success. M&A could be a strategy but the broker awaits details and execution.
Further afield, the strategy in regards to the cash position will be critical to the investment case, the broker asserts. Morgan Stanley retains an Equal-weight rating and In-Line sector view. Target is raised to 76c from 70c.
Target price is $0.76 Current Price is $0.72 Difference: $0.045
If BPT meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately 6% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Ord Minnett rates BPT as Lighten (4) -
First half results were broadly in line. Ord Minnett was impressed by the free cash flow and expects that reduced hedging and more domestic gas spot sales should increase leverage to underlying commodities.
Regardless of the positive indicators the broker believes the stock is expensive. Lighten retained. Target is raised to 65c from 64c.
Target price is $0.65 Current Price is $0.72 Difference: minus $0.065 (current price is over target).
If BPT meets the Ord Minnett target it will return approximately minus 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

UBS rates BPT as Neutral (3) -
Beach Energy's first half results were in line with the broker's estimates. The improvement from the pcp was driven by higher oil prices and lower operating costs.
The broker expects total production to increase in FY17, with increased fluid handling capacity at Bauer and increased output from Middleton. However, beyond FY17 UBS anticipates a rapid decline in Western Flank oil output.
Neutral rating and $0.70 target retained.
Target price is $0.70 Current Price is $0.72 Difference: minus $0.015 (current price is over target).

Citi rates BSL as Buy (1) -
Forget about the financial result, the highlight of the interim report was the announcement by the company 30-50% of free cash flow will be used to reward shareholders either through extra dividends or through share buybacks, exclaim Citi analysts.
There's going to be plenty to salivate about, the analysts suggest. It is Citi's view BlueScope Steel is structurally advantaged to deliver positive shareholder returns through the cycle. Buy rating retained. Price target lifts to $15 (was $13.34).
EPS forecasts have been increased by 18%, 13% and 8% respectively over FY17-FY19.

Citi rates BXB as Downgrade to Neutral from Buy (3) -
As it turned out, Brambles' interim result was even weaker than what was suggested at the time of the sudden profit warning in January. Plus management has now abandoned medium term financial targets.
At least the dividend was in line with expectations, Citi analysts observe. Disappointing is the term that sums it all up in Citi's initial response. The analysts already had been taken by surprise in January.
Downgrade to Neutral from Buy. Target price falls to $10.15 from $12.33. It has become clear, suggest the analysts, competition in the US is having a much larger impact than previously anticipated.
Target price is $10.15 Current Price is $9.28 Difference: $0.87
If BXB meets the Citi target it will return approximately 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $9.93, suggesting upside of 6.2% (ex-dividends)

Credit Suisse rates BXB as Underperform (5) -
Using hook nails has not, it appears, increased the durability of Brambles' pallets. Softwood block pallets are also less durable. This about sums up Brambles' problems in the US which saw management's previous FY19 return on invested capital target of 20% discarded at the company's result.
The broker can see ROIC reaching 18% in the next few years but if only 16% is achieved, the broker sees a $6 share price. Underperform retained. Target falls to $8.50 from $9.00.
Target price is $8.50 Current Price is $9.28 Difference: minus $0.78 (current price is over target).
If BXB meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately minus 8% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Deutsche Bank rates BXB as Downgrade to Hold from Buy (3) -
Brambles' first half results were in line with broker's forecasts. The company has removed its 2019 target of 20% ROCI and has indicated the current return levels of 16% strike the right balance between returns and growth.
The business in the Americas appears to be facing increased competition, and Deutsche Bank does not know if these issues are temporary or structural.
Deutsche Bank downgrades the stock to Hold from Buy and lowers the target price to $10.45 from $13.20.
Target price is $10.45 Current Price is $9.28 Difference: $1.17

Macquarie rates BXB as Downgrade to Neutral from Outperform (3) -
First half results were in line with the profit warning in January. The company has guided to FY17 constant currency underlying profit to be in line with FY16.
The company has also withdrawn its FY19 returns target of 20%, as Macquarie suspected.
The broker now only expects modest 3% growth in FY18 and downgrades to Neutral from Outperform. Target is reduced to $10.25 from $12.65.
Target price is $10.25 Current Price is $9.28 Difference: $0.97

Morgan Stanley rates BXB as Equal-weight (3) -
Morgan Stanley observes elevated competition has marred the outlook. To defend market share management is expected to further invest in margin, meaning downside to earnings per share and returns on invested capital.
This raises questions for the broker regarding earnings growth in the core US business and also around the strength of the company's value proposition.
The broker retains an Equal-weight rating. Target falls to $9.85 from $11.34. Industry view: Attractive.
Target price is $9.85 Current Price is $9.28 Difference: $0.57
If BXB meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately 6% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Morgans rates BXB as Downgrade to Hold from Add (3) -
First half results were weaker than expected but the outlook for FY17 disappointed Morgans even more so.
While the broker believes the long-term fundamentals are sound the results suggest that structural problems will take longer to be addressed than previously expected.
Morgans downgrades to Hold from Add. Target is reduced to $9.72 from $11.61.
Target price is $9.72 Current Price is $9.28 Difference: $0.44
If BXB meets the Morgans target it will return approximately 5% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

UBS rates BXB as Buy (1) -
Brambles' first half results were broadly in line with the broker's estimates. Excluding a -7% drop in the Americas, the group achieved 10% growth. The poor Americas result was largely blamed on competitive pressures in the US from its pooling competitors and a drop in white wood pricing.
UBS has reduced FY17 forecasts by -2%, bringing it in line with revised guidance. FY18 and FY19 forecasts are reduced by -6-7%, reflecting lower growth in US pallets.
Buy retained and target drops to $10.60 from $11.60.

UBS rates CAB as Downgrade to Neutral from Buy (3) -
UBS has downgraded Cabcharge to Neutral from Buy. Uber's momentum in Australia is stronger than the broker expected, and whilst Cabcharge is fairing better than peers it is yet to really drive its technology strategy.
The company's new driver terminal product could potentially win back share from traditional competitiors and provide some upside. Price target is reduced to $3.95 from $4.00.
Target price is $3.95 Current Price is $3.56 Difference: $0.39
If CAB meets the UBS target it will return approximately 11% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Citi rates CQR as Neutral (3) -
Citi spotted an in-line result, while management kept guidance intact. In response to questions, management reportedly stated there had been no engagement with Shopping Centres Australasia ((SCP)).
The stock is seen as trading in line with fair valuation. Target remains $4.29. Citi expects management will maintain discipline in redeploying proceeds from asset recycling. Neutral.
Target price is $4.29 Current Price is $4.29 Difference: $0

Macquarie rates CQR as Neutral (3) -
First half free funds from operations of 15.2c were slightly below expectations.
Macquarie finds it curious that the company is guiding to a flat outcome for earnings in FY17, given positive drivers have been identified which should lead to growth.
The broker remains cautious and retains a Neutral rating. Target is $4.27.
Target price is $4.27 Current Price is $4.29 Difference: minus $0.02 (current price is over target).

Morgan Stanley rates CQR as Underweight (5) -
First half operating earnings were in line with expectations. The mention of capital management initiatives has deflected attention from unchanged FY17 guidance, at 30.4c per security and in line with FY16, which missed Morgan Stanley's expectations.
The lower-than-expected guidance may be partly stemming from confusion about acquisitions and capital redeployment, the broker suggests.
Target is $3.90. Underweight. Sector view: Cautious.
Target price is $3.90 Current Price is $4.29 Difference: minus $0.39 (current price is over target).
If CQR meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately minus 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Ord Minnett rates CQR as Hold (3) -
First half earnings were in line with expectations. Ord Minnett notes the flat FY17 guidance of 30.4c per security.

The Hold rating is maintained. Target is $4.20.
Target price is $4.20 Current Price is $4.29 Difference: minus $0.09 (current price is over target).

UBS rates CQR as Neutral (3) -
First half results were in line with UBS estimates. Sales results were mixed, but there are signs supermarket sales are recovering, with both Coles ((WES)) and Woolworths ((WOW)) contributing.
The company has announced a buy-back or return of equity where sales proceeds cannot be reinvested in a timely manner. At present, management sees a scarcity of stock to redeploy into growth/metro locations.
Guidance was reaffirmed of 30.4c EPS and a 90-95% payout ratio. Neutral retained and target is raised to $4.50 from $4.47.

Macquarie rates CSV as Neutral (3) -
CSG's first half results were below expectations of the broker. The revenue miss was attributed to a longer than expected sales cycle in Enterprise and reduced sales productivity in business solutions.
The company has downgraded FY17 guidance, and now expects revenue of $250m to $275m and underlying EBITDA of $30m to $36m. Macquarie has cut FY17 forecasts by -23% and FY18 by -15.8%.
Neutral retained, target falls to 45c from $1.00.

Ord Minnett rates EVT as Buy (1) -
Ord Minnett described the first half result as "terrible". The issues should pass in the next 6-12 months and the shock of a -21% fall in net profit has created a buying opportunity for investors willing to look past this, says the stockbroker.
While resurgent cinema competition is expected to mean the company lags market growth, it is rolling out 56 more screens by the end of FY19, which the broker expects will create a strong long-term driver.
Hotels are under-earning and Ord Minnett believes refurbishments will provide improving returns over the medium term. Buy rating retained. Target falls to $15.69 from $16.25.

Nib's interim result beat expectations. Management raised guidance. Citi still thinks upgraded guidance is likely to prove conservative.

Citi rates VRL as Neutral (3) -
The interim results release has triggered concerns at Citi that debt remains too high and management's urgency to address it might not be urgent enough. Citi says there are no guarantees attempts to sell off assets will prove successful.
Theme Parks are likely to get worse before getting better, predict the analysts. They also believe guidance for the cinema operations comes with downside risks.
Earnings estimates have been reduced. The shares look cheap, but Citi is not keen, though there is re-rating potential in case of asset sales and/or a turnaround operationally. Neutral rating retained. Target loses 20c to $3.65.
If Citi's projections are anything to go by, shareholders should no longer expect any dividends in the foreseeable future.
Target price is $3.65 Current Price is $3.50 Difference: $0.15
If VRL meets the Citi target it will return approximately 4% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $3.98, suggesting upside of 13.6% (ex-dividends)
The company's fiscal year ends in June.

Citi rates WOR as Buy (1) -
Interim result was down -23%, but Citi analysts had expected much worse. The analysts point out higher gross margins and successful cost-out saved the day during the six months period.
Weak cash generation was a major disappointment, the analysts admit, but there's significant leverage to any upturn, no matter how small. On the analysts' estimates, every 1% in additional revenues will boost EBIT by 13% and net profits by 9%.
FY17 should mark the low point in the earnings cycle, suggest the analysts, but repairing the balance sheet has now become king. Could there be a capital raising on the horizon? In between the lines, Citi analysts do make the suggestion. Buy. Target $9.80 (unchanged).
Target price is $9.80 Current Price is $8.16 Difference: $1.64
If WOR meets the Citi target it will return approximately 20% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $9.42, suggesting upside of 17.7% (ex-dividends)
The company's fiscal year ends in June.
Forecast for FY17:

Citi forecasts a full year FY18 dividend of 15.00 cents and EPS of 64.50 cents. How do these forecasts compare to market consensus projections?

Credit Suisse rates WOR as Downgrade to Neutral from Outperform (3) -
WorleyParsons' FY16 result alleviated a lot of balance sheet concerns for investors, Credit Suisse notes. The company's weak first half FY17 result has reignited those concerns. Most worrying for the broker is that "slow progress" on reducing days sales outstanding (DSO) on remaining receivables is actually no progress.
While there is considerable leverage in the business to growth in development & contracting, the broker needs to be more confident in the company's ability to reduce debt. Downgrade to Neutral. Target falls to $8.50 from $9.20.
Target price is $8.50 Current Price is $8.16 Difference: $0.34
If WOR meets the Credit Suisse target it will return approximately 4% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $9.42, suggesting upside of 17.7% (ex-dividends)

Forecast for FY18:
Credit Suisse forecasts a full year FY18 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 65.00 cents. How do these forecasts compare to market consensus projections? Current consensus EPS estimate is 67.4, implying annual growth of 28.1%. Current consensus DPS estimate is 23.4, implying a prospective dividend yield of 2.9%. Current consensus EPS estimate suggests the PER is 11.9. |

Deutsche Bank rates WOR as Upgrade to Hold from Sell (3) -
First half results were below the broker's expectations. However, margins and earnings were better than Deutsche Bank had been expecting.
The broker has reduced its revenue forecasts, but increased margin assumptions, to reflect the expanded cost out program. The net impact has been a 10% to 18% EPS increase between FY17 and FY19,
The stock has been upgraded to Hold from Sell and the target price raised to $8.60 from $8.39.
Target price is $8.60 Current Price is $8.16 Difference: $0.44
If WOR meets the Deutsche Bank target it will return approximately 5% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $9.42, suggesting upside of 17.7% (ex-dividends)

Macquarie rates WOR as Downgrade to Underperform from Neutral (5) -
First half results were below expectations. Revenue disappointed Macquarie although margins were better. The balance sheet is now back in focus as net debt increased to $1.015bn.
Macquarie reduces FY17 forecasts for earnings per share by -14%. Recovery is expected to be gradual and cost cutting momentum to slow, putting the pressure on the top line to deliver.
Rating is downgraded to Underperform from Neutral. Target falls to $8.28 from $9.00.
Target price is $8.28 Current Price is $8.16 Difference: $0.12
If WOR meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately 1% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $9.42, suggesting upside of 17.7% (ex-dividends)

Morgan Stanley rates WOR as Overweight (1) -
A weak first half result, as expected. Morgan Stanley believes the company has put investors in a quandary: the outlook is pointing to an improved environment but concerns are raised about negative operating cash flow in the first half.
The broker believes optimism means little if the company cannot recover its cash flow and, in this regard, suspects time is running out. An improving macro environment may result in an influx of payments from delinquent debtors but equally mean the business consumes working capital as revenue recovers.
Overweight rating and Cautious industry view are retained. Target is $11.94.
Target price is $11.94 Current Price is $8.16 Difference: $3.78
If WOR meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately 46% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).
Current consensus price target is $9.42, suggesting upside of 17.7% (ex-dividends)
The company's fiscal year ends in June.
