Upgrade to Buy from Neutral

$15.00

-8.54%

Objective Corp delivered a solid set of FY24 numbers, UBS suggests, with cash earnings growing by 13%. The highlight was once again the incremental margins generated on SaaS revenue.

The share price has traded broadly sideways over the past three years, which has seen the stock's trading multiple de-rate significantly. UBS thinks this now presents an attractive opportunity to purchase a high quality ASX Software company.

Objective Corp offers a compound earnings growth rate of 20% and meets the broker's requirements for a 10% Internal Rate of Return.

Upgrade to Buy from Neutral. Target rises to $15.00 from $14.00.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY25 EPS of 41.00 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY26 EPS of 49.00 cents.

Neutral

$13.75

-16.16%

Objective Corp's FY24 result proved mixed, revenue meeting Goldman Sachs' forecasts and earnings (EBITDA) falling -4% short due to higher-than-expected operating expenditure.

Annual recurring revenue (ARR) fell -2% short of the broker's forecast due to delayed timing of deals, which should settle this month, and management retained its 15% ARR guidance for FY25. On the upside, SaaS ARR gew 15%.

Goldman Sachs concedes a strong margin, scaling and cloud-transition performance could pose upside risks to its forecasts but the broker spies more risk should the company miss its 15% ARR guidance.

Neutral rating  and $13.75 target price retained. 

FORECAST
Goldman Sachs forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 13.00 cents and EPS of 36.00 cents.
Goldman Sachs forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 16.00 cents and EPS of 40.00 cents.
