An additional news report on the recommendation, valuation, forecast and opinion changes for ASX-listed equities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In addition to The Australian Broker Call Report, which is published and updated daily (Mon-Fri), FNArena has now added The Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition, featuring additional sources of research and insights on ASX-listed stocks, also enlarging the number of stocks that make up the FNArena universe.<\/p>\n

One key difference is the *Extra* Edition will not be updated daily, but merely "regularly" depending on availability of suitable quality content. As such, the *Extra* Edition tries to build a bridge between daily updates via the Australian Broker Call Report and ad hoc news stories, that are not always timely for investors hungry for the next information update.<\/p>\n

Investors using the *Extra* Edition as a source of input for their own share market research should thus take into account that information after publication may not be up to date, or yet awaiting another update by FNArena's team of journalists.<\/p>\n

Similar to The Australian Broker Call Report, this *Extra* Edition includes concise but limited reviews of research recently published by Stockbrokers and other experts, which should be considered as information concerning likely market behaviour rather than advice on the securities mentioned. Do not act on the contents of this Report without first reading the important information included at the end of this Report.<\/p>\n

The Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition is a summary that has been prepared independently of the sources identified. Readers will check the full text of the recommendations and consult a Licenced Advisor before making any investment decision.<\/p>\n

The copyright of this Report is owned by the publisher. Readers will not copy, forward or disseminate this Report to any other person. For more vital information about the sources included, see the bottom of this Report.<\/p>\n

Copper – Overnight Price: $0.22 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Bell Potter rates ((AIS)) as Downgrade to Hold from Buy (3) –<\/p>\n

Bell Potter initiated coverage in late November last year. It considers Aeris Resources a highly leveraged play on the copper price thanks to the company's Tritton operations combined with potential for exploration success at the Torrens JV.<\/p>\n

While the December quarterly production report is labeled "a good result", higher costs and lower forecasts for copper have triggered quite meaty reductions to forecasts. The stock's valuation has been further impacted by the weakening AUD.<\/p>\n

All in all, the price target lost -1c to 22c. Following a rally in the share price, Bell Potter has decided to downgrade to Hold from Buy. This research update was released on January 21, 2019.<\/p>\n

Target price is $0.22<\/strong> Current Price is $0.22 <\/strong> Difference: $0<\/strong>
\nIf AIS<\/strong> meets the Bell Potter target it will return approximately 0%<\/strong> (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

ALU<\/a>    ALTIUM LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Hardware & Equipment – Overnight Price: $23.94 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Bell Potter rates ((ALU)) as Downgrade to Hold from Buy (3) –<\/p>\n

Bell Potter has made no changes to forecasts, still thinks this is a high quality, local tech darling able to achieve double digit percentage growth in the order of 36%, 29% and 25% respectively for FY19 and the two following years, but a rally in the share price has narrowed the gap between the revised target and the share price.<\/p>\n

The analysts made no changes to forecasts, yet they did lift their target by 6% to $25, also rolling forward their valuation modeling ahead of the February reporting season. There is always the risk that Altium might positively surprise next month, but for now the analysts are comfortable with their already robust growth projections, and commensurate valuation.<\/p>\n

This research update was released on January 21, 2019.<\/p>\n

APE<\/a>    AP EAGERS LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Automobiles & Components – Overnight Price: $6.60 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Moelis rates ((APE)) as Hold (3) –<\/p>\n

Hold rating retained after the car dealer released what Moelis believes was a "strong" preliminary FY18 financial performance, by keeping a lid on costs plus OEM incentives. The suggested financial numbers were ahead of previously provided guidance, points out the analyst.<\/p>\n

The face value result is propped up by property revaluation and proceeds from asset sales, leading Moelis to point out it was strong, but not to the extent as suggested by the numbers. The overall trading environment is expected to remain tough, but Moelis is prepared to back management, albeit with further downward pressure on margins assumed.<\/p>\n

Earnings estimates have been lifted by circa 3%. Target price drops to $7.25 from $7.75. This research update was released on January 24, 2019.<\/p>\n

Bell Potter has updated for the latest market release and appearance in front of the Senate Enquiry into the Buy Now, Pay Later sector. The broker has long been a fervent supporter of the company, and that doesn't seem to be about to change.<\/p>\n

Following multiple changes to the modeling, the price target has lifted to $25.04 from $23.63. Buy rating remains firmly in place. On current forecasts, EPS growth will jump by 269.8% and 90.9% respectively in FY20 and FY21.<\/p>\n

CGC<\/a>    COSTA GROUP HOLDINGS LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Agriculture – Overnight Price: $5.28 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Wilsons rates ((CGC)) as Hold (3) –<\/p>\n

The company recently issued a profit warning and Wilsons analysts state their modeling already accounts for structural price deflation. On the basis of the latest warning, the analysts now conclude the price deflation is stronger than expected, which might be due to some cyclical influences.<\/p>\n

Forecasts have been cut by -7-12% for the years ahead. All in all, Wilsons argues the share price appears broadly fair for a business generating low double-digit earnings growth, but with elevated earnings uncertainty. Hold.<\/p>\n

Price target $5. Research update was released on January 23, 2019.<\/p>\n

COE<\/a>    COOPER ENERGY LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Crude Oil – Overnight Price: $0.45 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Canaccord Genuity rates ((COE)) as Buy (1) –<\/p>\n

Analysts at Canaccord Genuity have observed the Sole project development is de-risking quickly (now 86% complete) and while company management keeps on referring to "within budget", the analysts are of the view a more accurate designation would be "under budget".<\/p>\n

Under different circumstances this would have translated into higher forecasts and a lift in valuation, but Canaccord Genuity has also lowered its oil price forecasts and one cancels out the other. The in-house 2H FY19 oil price forecast is now at US$65\/bbl (from US$75) while the long-term forecast  moved to US$65\/bbl from US$70.<\/p>\n

FY19 forecasts have been reduced, but valuation stays untouched at $0.64. Buy rating retained. This research update was released on January 24, 2019.<\/p>\n

ELX<\/a>    ELLEX MEDICAL LASERS LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Overnight Price: $0.60 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Bell Potter rates ((ELX)) as Buy (1) –<\/p>\n

The company's trading update revealed ongoing strong growth, led by the glaucoma franchise, but analysts at Bell Potter are disappointed nevertheless; they had expected to see even better growth numbers.<\/p>\n

This results in reduced forecasts, which pulls back the price target to $1.47 from $1.69. Bell Potter is counting on the return of strong growth in FY21, which should follow a period of negative earnings, due mainly, point out the analysts, because of increased spending to support further growth (for iTrack in particular). Buy rating retained.<\/p>\n

MCP<\/a>    MCPHERSON'S LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Overnight Price: $1.32 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Moelis rates ((MCP)) as Buy (1) –<\/p>\n

Moelis saw a (preliminary unaudited) interim result impacted by cost pressures, noting the company's guidance for FY19, underlying, represents a downgrade of some -13% from prior forecasts. Costs were definitely a disappointment and Moelis points out Multix was heavily impacted from a weaker AUD.<\/p>\n

Given the recent drop in resin prices, the negative impact is expected to half in H2. Owned skincare brands, on the other hand, continue performing strongly, the analysts note. With the overall consumer environment not looking brighter, forecasts have been reduced by -10-13%.<\/p>\n

Moelis maintains McPherson's is a cheap way to gain exposure to the health and beauty thematic. Target price drops to $1.65. Buy rating retained.<\/p>\n

Wealth Management & Investments – Overnight Price: $117.06 <\/strong><\/p>\n

CLSA rates ((MQG)) as Conviction Buy (1) –<\/p>\n

Macquarie is scheduled to provide an operational update on February 12 and industry veteran analyst Brian Johnson notes this will be fresh CEO Shemara Wikramanayake’s maiden solo performance. Given Macquarie already upgraded its guidance for FY19, he's not anticipating yet another upgrade.<\/p>\n

CLSA's current forecasts continue to project a robust pace for the years ahead, with infrastructure (MIRA) and favourable trading conditions in commodities (particularly US natural gas) and global markets underpinning this view.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the event, Johnson reiterates the Conviction Buy call, alongside an unchanged price target of $146. This research update was released on January 24, 2019.<\/p>\n

Analysts at Shaw believe the latest market update translates to 6-8% further upside to current forecasts. Buy rating retained, while the broker's price target lifts to $3.90 from $3.50. The analysts note the share price has gained no less than 31% over the past twelve months.<\/p>\n

It is Shaw and Partners' view that Midway remains an attractive Australian growth story. The company's addressable market remains large, while forecast EBITDA CAGR is 9%, translating into double digit EPS growth forecasts.<\/p>\n

Equally important, the broker believes tailwinds and favourable industry dynamics should remain well into FY20, including strong prices for woodchips, strong demand from China, and constrained supply elsewhere. Update issued on January 23, 2019.<\/p>\n

WGN<\/a>    WAGNERS HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Building Products & Services – Overnight Price: $2.99 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Wilsons rates ((WGN)) as Sell (5) –<\/p>\n

Wagners has issued its second profit warning in only three months. Analysts at Wilsons are of the view that the underlying construction materials & services operations are performing ahead of expectations, but the pre-cast concrete business continues to generate disappointing news.<\/p>\n

Wilsons cannot shake off concerns about medium-term earnings for the group as a whole, also noting there remains significant customer loss risk in FY20, while the founders' shares will come out of escrow in August this year.<\/p>\n

The above explains why the Sell rating remains firmly in place. Target price $2.62. Forecasts have been reduced. This research update was released on January 23, 2019.<\/p>\n
