Neutral

$78.00

1.46%

UBS analysts have maintained a Neutral rating on Wesfarmers, raising the price target to $78.00 from $76.00. FY25 and FY26 EPS estimates have been revised down by -0.5% and -2.5%, respectively, reflecting lower earnings expectations for WesCEF and WIS, partially offset by an upgrade for Kmart.

The company reported a 1H25 net profit of $1.47bn, broadly in line with expectations, with Kmart and WesCEF outperforming, while Bunnings remained steady.

Management reiterated FY25 guidance, with cost savings and productivity improvements helping to offset inflationary pressures. The broker remains positive on Wesfarmers' long-term growth prospects but notes the stock’s valuation premium relative to history.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 205.00 cents and EPS of 237.00 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 229.00 cents and EPS of 258.00 cents.

Underweight

$61.00

-20.66%

Wesfarmers is shutting down Catch in 2H25, a decision Jarden views favourably but notes it signals the company is increasingly likely to pursue a centralised supply chain strategy in the near term which could be to its detriment in the longer term.

The broker has lifted FY26 EPS estimate by 1%.

Target price unchanged at $61 and Underweight rating maintained.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 202.00 cents and EPS of 231.40 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 229.00 cents and EPS of 265.60 cents.
