Buy

$24.60

14.15%

UBS notes the mark-to-market earnings changes for general insurers and private health insurers were relatively modest. The impacts for general insurers have been offset by an improved 2H25 for CAT costs relative to above-budget consensus estimates, the broker explains.

Across the sector, UBS prefers QBE Insurance due to valuation, and Medibank Private ((MPL)) among private health insurers, with Steadfast Group ((SDF)) preferred among insurance brokers.

QBE target price is raised to $24.60 from $24.40 with a Buy rating unchanged.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 97.00 cents and EPS of 178.32 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 103.00 cents and EPS of 190.62 cents.

Buy

$24.10

11.83%

Given volatility in financial markets, Jarden extended its March quarter mark-to-market for insurers and brokers to April 11.

During this period, US and Australian risk-free rates fell, equity markets declined, USD depreciated, US credit spreads widened, though Australia was more muted, and 10-year inflation breakeven fell in the US and Australia.

QBE Insurance was an exception, seeing a lift in target price due to forex benefit from USD depreciation relative to GBP/EUR. The broker cut FY25 forecast EPS by -5.7% but raised FY26 by 3.2%.

Buy. Target rises to $24.10 from $23.65.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 91.00 cents and EPS of 166.79 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 104.00 cents and EPS of 193.70 cents.
