Buy

$7.60

42.06%

UBS maintains Buy while cutting its 12-month price target to $7.60 from $8.83 after FY25 underlying NPAT of $45.2m missed its $50.5m estimate.

Commentary suggests positives include three site sales (total proceeds $114m vs $154m BV), sales momentum at circa 16 per month in 2H, and DMF contract options that support a better near-term balance sheet with Dec-25 net debt forecast below $360m (vs $463m Jun-25).

Forecasts have been lowered with estimated FY26 settlements now at 255 (was 265) and DPS reintroduced at 3c in FY26, rising to 10c by FY28.

The broker argues Lifestyle Communities offers concentrated leverage to an improving Victorian residential market, with upside if residents opt in to permissible DMF and potential write-backs on prior DMF provisions (circa $1/sh to pre-DTL NTA of $6.05).

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 3.00 cents and EPS of 34.00 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 8.00 cents and EPS of 52.00 cents.

Hold

$6.00

12.15%

Lifestyle Communities' FY25 result, like its 4Q25 update, was overshadowed by the accounting impact of the July VCAT ruling. EBITDA fell -14% y/y to $71.9m, and revenue slowed in the 2H vs 1H despite stronger sales and settlements.

The property developer and manager has taken a -$190m net balance sheet write-down, which could mostly reverse if it succeeds in its appeal. The lodgement is on September 5, with the outcome likely 6-12 months later.

New DMF contract structures have been revised to provide customers with optionality and to mitigate financial risk irrespective of the appeal. 

Operationally, Canaccord Genuity comments, sales momentum is steady, inventory is being cleared, and leverage is expected to reduce by year-end

FY26 EBITDA forecast trimmed by -2% but FY27 lifted by 2%. Target rises to $6.00 from $5.30 on FY27 forecast upgrades. Hold retained.

FORECAST
Canaccord Genuity forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 28.00 cents.
Canaccord Genuity forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 32.00 cents.
