Outperform

$29.98

-11.04%

Eagers Automotive has bought a 65% equity stake in CanadaOne for $1,043m, which is composed of $386m in scrip and $658m in cash. The owner/founder of CanadaOne, Pat Priestner, will retain a 30% stake in operating companies and 35% in property.

The Canadian market is around 1.6x larger than the Australian market and has grown at a long-term rate of up to 5.5% versus the Australian market at 3.4%.

The deal will be funded by a $452m entitlement offer of around 21.5m new shares at $21, a discount of -28.4% from the close. Nick Politis picked up 100% of his pro rata entitlement.

The analyst tweaks EPS estimates down -4% for 2025 for dilution, and up 7% and 5% for 2026/2027, respectively.

Target price lifts to $29.98 from $27.33. Macquarie believes the re-rating in the stock is justified and reflects the higher quality rating ascribed to overseas opportunities and a possible earnings upgrade cycle boosted by rate cuts.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 76.00 cents and EPS of 101.70 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 94.00 cents and EPS of 125.70 cents.

Neutral

$23.25

-31.01%

Jarden notes Eagers Automotive delivered another strong result, with 1H25 underlying profit before tax (PBT) of $197.7m, 3% above consensus.

Revenue of $6.5bn beat consensus by 7%, driven by new vehicles up 9% and used vehicles in line. Group gross margins of 16.7% were below consensus expectations on mix shift to lower margin new car sales, explain the analysts.

Record low operating costs, only slightly under consensus, supported pre-tax profit margins of 3.04%, highlights the broker.

Jarden feels momentum is building into 2H25, with easing interest rates and stronger new car gross profit margins expected.

Market share rose to 13.8%, supported by the BYD joint venture, while growth in parts, services and finance is expected to offset flat margins in used vehicles.

The broker's target price increases to $23.25 and a Neutral rating is kept on valuation.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 84.20 cents and EPS of 103.40 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 100.70 cents and EPS of 123.70 cents.
