Buy

$2.42

33.70%

The analysts at Citi are incrementally more confident in the turnaround at Baby Bunting following today's release of formal 1H results containing additional details to the pre-reported version in mid-January.

The broker notes reiterated guidance implies a 2H skew, and highlights a slight acceleration in like-for-like sales, coming in at 2.8% for the first seven weeks of the 2H.

Based on current momentum, Citi feels management is on track to hit the top end or exceed FY25 guidance, highlighting some of the strategies such as store upgrades and new smaller formats have yet to impact.

No interim dividend was declared.

Buy. Target moves to $2.42 from $2.01.

FORECAST
Citi forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 5.90 cents and EPS of 8.10 cents.
Citi forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 9.90 cents and EPS of 13.70 cents.

Overweight

$2.20

21.55%

Baby Bunting offered a trading update at the AGM with gross profit margins rising 240bps to 40.3% and total sales up 2.4% year-on-year.

Wilsons notes sales remain subdued, but management reconfirmed net profit guidance of $9.5m-$12.5m with better gross margins.

Margins gains are seemingly generated from structural factors such as loyalty changes, supplier negotiations and brand partnerships, the broker explains.

Overweight rating unchanged. Target price lifts 5% to $2.20.

FORECAST
Wilsons forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 8.10 cents.
Wilsons forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 8.00 cents and EPS of 16.00 cents.
