Buy

$26.00

11.02%

Ord Minnett assesses a "solid" March-quarter update from QBE Insurance, with gross written premium growth of 11% year-on-year supporting the re-affirmation of 2026 guidance.

Growth was led by North America, particularly crop insurance, while other regions were more mixed, the analyst explains.

Premium rate increases moderated but remained positive, while investment income was softer in the quarter but improved into April. Catastrophe claims remain within allowances, the broker notes.

Ord Minnett raises its earnings forecasts modestly, retaining a $26.00 target price. QBE is preferred in the sector for its offshore exposure.

Neutral

$21.30

-9.05%

Jarden maintains a Neutral rating for QBE Insurance and lowers the target price to $21.30 from $21.80 following a first-quarter trading update showing softer-than-expected underlying volume momentum.

Ex-rate and ex-crop premium growth of 2% fell short of implied guidance, highlighting an increasing difficulty in sustaining top-line expansion while simultaneously defending margins amid softening commercial insurance pricing.

A constructive El Nino outlook is expected to deliver a benign catastrophe year, potentially masking deteriorating attritional losses as premium rate rises fall further below claims inflation.

Earnings per share forecasts have been upgraded by 6% to 138.8c in FY26 due to an anticipated first-half catastrophe budget beat alongside favourable foreign exchange and investment income movements, with FY27 estimates lifting 2% to 145.1c.

The minor target price reduction solely reflects recent foreign exchange translation impacts within the valuation model.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 100.00 cents and EPS of 205.17 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 102.00 cents and EPS of 214.49 cents.
