New Zealand's Commerce Commission gave the green light for Contact Energy's proposed acquisition of Manawa Energy. 

Jarden believes this removes a significant hurdle, and the deal will now proceed to court approval and shareholder vote.

The broker sees long-term upside for the stock if wholesale prices remain elevated and synergy guidance is met.

Buy. Target price NZ$11.11.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 35.56 cents and EPS of 21.34 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 35.56 cents and EPS of 32.37 cents.
