Neutral

$8.60

5.01%

Macquarie noted the KFC brand is doing well in Australia with comparable sales growth of 4% early in FY27 up from 2.7% in FY26.

The analyst welcomes the launch of 'Kwench' to improve store utilisation as well as the expansion into breakfast.

These investments are likely to result in margin weakness as well as risks around more promotions and lower-margin delivery channels, on top of labour cost pressures.

Growing the top line will be important for maintaining margins, the broker states. Management's aim for Germany store rollout is expected to generate around a 15% NPAT contribution over three years.

No change to Neutral rating. Target slips by -2.3% to $8.60. EPS forecasts are lowered by -3% in FY27 and FY28.

Coverage of the stock is transferred to Ajay Mariswarmy from Caleb Wheatley.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 30.40 cents and EPS of 54.10 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY28 dividend of 34.10 cents and EPS of 60.60 cents.

Buy

$10.99

34.19%

Canaccord Genuity maintains a Buy rating for Collins Foods with its target price decreased to $10.99 following an inline FY26 financial result.

The company reported normalised EBITDA of $245m and NPAT of $61.4m, driven by sustained same-store sales growth across Australian operations and favourable foreign exchange translation in Europe.

Initial FY27 trading shows resilient Australian momentum offsetting softer European metrics, leading the analyst to lower forward earnings projections by -5% to -9% across FY27 and FY28 due to a delayed margin recovery trajectory.

Removal of the Taco Bell segment is expected to prove moderately accretive to earnings while the exceptionally strong balance sheet provides ample capacity to fund network expansion and new product initiatives.

The valuation multiple has been lowered to reflect near-term earnings moderation, yet the investment thesis retains enthusiasm for underlying brand strength and long-term network growth prospects in Germany.
