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

ADH<\/a>    ADAIRS LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Furniture & Renovation – Overnight Price: $3.88 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Wilsons rates ((ADH)) as Overweight (1) –<\/p>\n

Adairs reported a first-half operating income of $60.2m, beating guidance and Wilsons' estimated $58.3m. Wilsons notes the businesses including online and Mocka are performing better than expected and have continued to grow despite achieving margin expansion.<\/p>\n

No guidance was provided due to covid-induced volatility but the broker finds sales in the first seven weeks to be encouraging.<\/p>\n

Looking at the market share gains via Adairs' omni-channel strategy and a loyal customer base and seeing significant valuation upside, Wilsons retains its Overweight rating with a target price of $4.50.<\/p>\n

ALU<\/a>    ALTIUM LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Hardware & Equipment – Overnight Price: $27.64 <\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Altium's first-half operating income of US$30.6m was -11% below Bell Potter's forecast of US$34.5m and was driven by a much lower-than-expected margin. Operating income margin fell to 32.7% versus last year driven by continued investment in the cloud business.<\/p>\n

The broker has changed its FY21 forecasts with TASKING now treated as a discontinued business, consistent with the company's reporting procedure.<\/p>\n

Bell Potter is at the lower end of revenue and operating income guidance for FY21.<\/p>\n

The target price has decreased to $28.50 from $31.25 with a Hold rating.<\/p>\n

AVH<\/a>    AVITA THERAPEUTICS, INC<\/h2>\n

Pharmaceuticals & Biotech\/Lifesciences – Overnight Price: $6.15 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Wilsons rates ((AVH)) as Overweight (1) –<\/p>\n

Wilsons maintains its Overweight position on Avita Medical post the second-quarter results with a price target of $7.80. US RECELL sales were below the broker's forecast and net loss compared favourably with the broker's forecast. <\/p>\n

December quarter trading was subdued for Avita, observes Wilsons, which was the case across most of the US medtech sector. Wilsons broadly maintains the revenue forecasts but has increased opex estimates due to higher costs for certain R&D programs.<\/p>\n

In the broker's view, the company is bringing a higher level of sales sophistication to a marketplace with the intention of disrupting and capturing it. The company’s vitiligo program is the largest source of valuation upside over the next year, adds Wilsons.<\/p>\n

Overweight rating with a target price of $7.80.<\/p>\n

Class' announced a solid set of results, observes Wilsons, with in-line revenue and operating income.<\/p>\n

The company has upgraded its FY21 revenue growth guidance increased to 22% from 20% which includes a 4-month contribution from the ReckonDocs acquisition.<\/p>\n

The Class Trust offering appears to be gaining traction, notes a pleased Wilsons, with trust pilot programs up 50% to 2,571 versus June 2020. The company is looking to supplement its core super offering with acquisition aimed at gaining scale.<\/p>\n

CQE<\/a>    CHARTER HALL SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE REIT<\/h2>\n

Childcare – Overnight Price: $2.98 <\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Charter Hall Social Infrastructure REIT delivered first half like for like rental growth of 2.5% versus last year with 99.6% of rent collected. This along with the REIT's balance sheet deployment led to a 5% rise in FY21 distribution guidance, highlights Moelis.<\/p>\n

The broker expects upward pressure on valuations to continue driven by investor demand for direct assets. The portfolio weighted average expiry lease increased to 14 years versus 12.7 years in June 2020.<\/p>\n

Moelis feels 2021 will be a year of transformation for the REIT with meaningful shifts in capital allocation including the acquisition of a hospital in Brisbane and the development of circa $80m emergency services in Adelaide. <\/p>\n

Buy rating with a target price of $3.37.<\/p>\n

Travel, Leisure & Tourism – Overnight Price: $20.80 <\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Corporate Travel Management reported a first-half operating loss of -$15.7m considerably down versus last year and -$9.9m below Bell Potter's expectations. Underlying net profit was down materially to a loss of -$26m.<\/p>\n

Covid negatively impacted operating conditions for global travel, notes the broker, with total transaction value down -88% and revenue down -67% to $74.2m. The A&NZ region was the highlight with a positive operating income of $3m in the first half. <\/p>\n

Bell Potter remains bullish on the company owing to its execution and leverage to the return of travel. The broker believes share price will do well over the medium term due to ongoing improvement in travel sentiment and market share gains from client wins.<\/p>\n

Bell Potter maintains its Buy rating with the target price increasing to $22 from $18.50. <\/p>\n

ELO<\/a>    ELMO SOFTWARE LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Jobs & Skilled Labour Services – Overnight Price: $5.45 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Wilsons rates ((ELO)) as Market Weight (3) –<\/p>\n

With Elmo software's top-line number pre-announced in January, Wilsons notes the result focused on the performance of Breathe and Webexpenses.<\/p>\n

Management reaffirmed guidance for the group and is confident in achieving the mid-point on all metrics, although Wilsons believes a strong fourth quarter in Australia, New Zealand and the UK markets might lead to a top-end annual recurring revenue result.<\/p>\n

Wilsons likes the fact that Elmo Software will benefit from the forthcoming business recovery expected in the UK\/A&NZ but the lack of any meaningful operating leverage keeps the broker at Neutral. The target price is $6.87.<\/p>\n

Wilsons remains constructive on EML Payments and sees FY21 as the "digestion" year, where Prepaid Financial Services will prove the value proposition of its offering.<\/p>\n

While the second half will not be without its challenges, the broker expects EML Payment to consolidate and extend its market position in FY22. The broker expects general purpose reloadable to be 53% of gross profit in FY21.<\/p>\n

GMA<\/a>    GENWORTH MORTGAGE INSURANCE AUSTRALIA LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Banks – Overnight Price: $2.67 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Goldman Sachs rates ((GMA)) as No Rating (-1) –<\/p>\n

Genworth Mortgage Insurance Australia’s reported its second half result with a better than expected net loss of -$17.6 m versus Goldman Sachs's forecast of -$35.4 m. This was driven by a better-than-expected outcome on net earned premiums (NEP).<\/p>\n

The underwriting loss was -$60.7m and was 20% above the broker estimate led yet again by the stronger-than-expected NEP performance although this was more than offset by higher claims, which explains the loss.<\/p>\n

The broker finds the company's capital position strong and has upgraded its FY21-22 earnings forecast by 67.5% and 28.4%.<\/p>\n

Automobiles & Components – Overnight Price: $12.25 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Goldman Sachs rates ((GUD)) as Buy (1) –<\/p>\n

GUD Holdings' first-half result was broadly in line with Goldman Sachs' forecasts. The broker incorporates the recent acquisitions of AMA Group’s automotive components and accessories division and Australian Clutch Services.<\/p>\n

The acquisitions coupled with a solid first half drive the broker's upgrades for FY21 with operating income estimated to be $98.1m versus the company guidance of $95-100m.<\/p>\n

Wilsons rates ((GUD)) as Market Weight (3) –<\/p>\n

GUD Holdings reported a strong first half result with net profit up 18% led by higher automotive operating income and higher sales activity. FY21 guidance seems conservative to Wilsons and the broker's operating income forecast is circa 4% above the guidance mid-point.<\/p>\n

Growth in FY22 will be underpinned by GUD's recent acquisitions and a more favourable fx position, asserts the broker while acknowledging the mix of new businesses will likely see automotive margins decline.<\/p>\n

Wilsons maintains its Market Weight rating with the target rising to $13.25 from $12.10.<\/p>\n

NEA<\/a>    NEARMAP LTD<\/h2>\n

Software & Services – Overnight Price: $2.46 <\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Nearmap's first-half result beat Canaccord Genuity's expectations despite a weak economic environment. Both Nearmap's annualised contract value (ACV) and sales rose 21% while operating income at $13.5m was materially higher than the broker's estimated $4.7m.<\/p>\n

The company reiterated its previous ACV guidance of $120-$128m but stated the company is tracking towards the upper end of the range. The broker considers the top end of the guidance range achievable if Nearmap can continue to drive new sales growth.<\/p>\n

Canaccord Genuity especially highlights the result was led by an "impressive" net retention rate of 107% which in the broker's view, illustrates the resilience and scalability of its business model.<\/p>\n

The Buy rating is unchanged. The target price is increased to $3.10 from $2.90.<\/p>\n

RDY<\/a>    READYTECH HOLDINGS LTD<\/h2>\n

Software & Services – Overnight Price: $1.83 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Wilsons rates ((RDY)) as Overweight (1) –<\/p>\n

ReadyTech Holdings posted a strong first half update, largely meeting Wilsons' expectations on revenue and operating income while being 11% ahead on earnings. Guidance was reaffirmed.<\/p>\n

The broker notes the result was led by strong average revenue per new customers gained in the half. The Open Office transaction is expected to be concluded by March 23.<\/p>\n

The Overweight rating is unchanged with the target rising to $2.85 from $2.78.<\/p>\n

RHP<\/a>    RHIPE LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Cloud services – Overnight Price: $1.73 <\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Rhipe delivered a first-half operating profit of $8.8m, up 34% versus last year and in-line with pre-released figures.<\/p>\n

Despite cycling a strong result last year, Bell Potter notes Rhipe delivered top-line growth of 15% reflecting strong growth in Microsoft public cloud revenue streams and services revenue. An interim dividend of 1.5c was announced versus Bell Potter's expected 1c.<\/p>\n

On the flip side, these positives were offset by soft operating conditions seen by Rhipe's SMB client base which, in the broker's view, has remained in cash conservation mode since the beginning of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Bell Potter retains its Buy rating with the target price unchanged at $2.50.<\/p>\n

SUL<\/a>    SUPER RETAIL GROUP LIMITED<\/h2>\n

Automobiles & Components – Overnight Price: $11.66 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Bell Potter rates ((SUL)) as Hold (3) –<\/p>\n

Super Retail Group's first-half result was strong, observes Bell Potter, with operating income by 112% over last year to $272m. The result was led by elevated sales across all segments, expansion in gross margin and significant opex leverage benefits.<\/p>\n

The group's lastest update for the second half points to buoyant trading conditions with like for like sales growth in first 7 weeks led by Rebel, BCF and Macpac. Super Retail expects promotional activity to rise as inventory levels are restored. <\/p>\n

Bell Potter retains its Hold rating with the target price rising to $11.80 from $11.45.<\/p>\n
