Overweight

$37.65

23.89%

Morgan Stanley believes AUB Group reported FY24 earnings in line with forecasts and consensus with a 59c dividend, some 4% better than expected.

Internationally, management is trying to reproduce the A&NZ strategy with recent UK acquisitions. The Tysers synergies are coming in ahead of expectations.

Management's FY25 guidance sits some -7% below the broker's forecasts and -4% below consensus. Accordingly, EPS forecasts are tweaked by -0.5% and -3.3% for FY25/FY26, respectively.

AUB Group is the preferred insurance broker stock for Morgan Stanley, with an expected 9% EPS growth rate p.a. between FY24-FY27, trading on attractive valuation.

Morgan Stanley retains an Overweight rating. Target price $37.65. Industry view is In-Line.

FORECAST
Morgan Stanley forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 97.00 cents and EPS of 172.00 cents.
Morgan Stanley forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 105.00 cents and EPS of 189.00 cents.

Goldman Sachs

Buy

$34.00

11.88%

Goldman Sachs observes the second half of FY24 underlying net profit was ahead of estimates but AUB Group has provided FY25 guidance that is lower than expected.

While the broker acknowledges some conservatism, historically there is the inclusion of technology costs associated with the NZ project Lola and the recruitment of new teams.

Premium rate increases have moderated to around 6% yet management has indicated this can be offset by increases in commission rates. Medium-term margin targets have been retained with further upgrades considered possible. Buy rating retained. Target is $34.

FORECAST
Goldman Sachs forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 89.00 cents and EPS of 169.00 cents.
Goldman Sachs forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 98.00 cents and EPS of 188.00 cents.
