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

360<\/a>    LIFE360, INC<\/h2>\n
Software & Services – Overnight Price: $13.60 <\/strong><\/p>\n
Bell Potter rates ((360)) as Buy (1) –<\/p>\n
After the recent listing by US competitor Nextdoor, Bell Potter feels a higher multiple should be ascribed to Life360. This is because the company generates most of its revenue via higher-quality subscription versus Nextdoor's advertising-based model.<\/p>\n
This point has added resonance when one contemplates Life360 intends listing in the US sometime next year. Taking into account factors including Nexdoor's multiples, market movements and time creep, the analyst raises the price target to $14.75 from $12.50.<\/p>\n
The Buy rating is unchanged.<\/p>\n

Sustaining momentum, Adore Beauty Group has reaffirmed a strong outlook for FY22 and previous guidance. Shaw and Partners highlighted first quarter revenue growth was up 25% on the previous corresponding period, and active customer growth up 25%. <\/p>\n
The broker also noted revenue upgrades for the year were likely depending on performance following Christmas in the third and fourth quarters. Despite being the category leader, Shaw and Partners expects continued market share gains and long-term growth. <\/p>\n

Australian Clinical Labs will acquire Medlab Pathology for $70m, with Goldman Sachs noting $60m will be paid upfront while an additional $5m will be paid on completion of 2022 and the remaining $5 will be subject to revenue retention targets. <\/p>\n
Australian Clinical Labs expects synergies of at least $10m over 18-24 months. Given Medlab Pathology's NSW and Queensland market share, where the company is relatively underweight, the broker notes the strategic transaction should drive growth in focus regions. <\/p>\n
The Buy rating and target price of $5.90 are retained. <\/p>\n

New Battery Elements – Overnight Price: $0.56 <\/strong><\/p>\n
Canaccord Genuity rates ((CXO)) as Initiation of coverage with Buy (1) –<\/p>\n
Canaccord Genuity initiates on Core Lithium, a company focused on development of the Finniss Lithium project, an expected 174,000 tonne per annum spodumene concentrate operation with an eight-year mine life and all-in sustaining cost per tonne of US$441. <\/p>\n
The broker notes plans to commission the project in the second half of FY22 would make Core Lithium one of a few new spodumene concentrate sources globally, allowing the company to capitalise on high pricing given market tightness. <\/p>\n
Further, the project is well-located for transportation access, construction and easier processing, and there is upside exploration risk. <\/p>\n
The broker initiates with a Speculative Buy rating and a target price of $0.70. <\/p>\n

Commercial Services & Supplies – Overnight Price: $2.70 <\/strong><\/p>\n
Bell Potter rates ((DGL)) as Upgrade to Buy from Hold (1) –<\/p>\n
Following a weak recent share price and upgrades to earnings estimates, Bell Potter raises its rating for DGL Group to Buy from Hold. The broker also takes into account the recent acquisition of the Queensland-based automotive consumables formulator Austech for -$26m.<\/p>\n
When combining this acquisition with that of Ausblue (made last month), the analyst foresees a differentiated play on Australia’s transition to net zero. Despite upgrades to EPS estimates, the price target of $3.05 remains unchanged.<\/p>\n
This report was published on November 16, 2021.<\/p>\n
Target price is $3.05<\/strong> Current Price is $2.70 <\/strong> Difference: $0.35<\/strong>

Agriculture – Overnight Price: $11.77 <\/strong><\/p>\n
Bell Potter rates ((ELD)) as Hold (3) –<\/p>\n
Elder's FY21 underlying profit revealed a slight beat on versus Bell Potter's estimate. The broker retains its Hold rating. The outlook for acquisitions and integrating past ones is thought to be incorporated into consensus estimates.<\/p>\n
The analyst points out the FY21 result was primarily driven by the retail and wholesale results, with agency modestly behind expectations. No formal guidance was provided by management though livestock prices are expected to remain elevated in the medium term.<\/p>\n
The target falls to $12.90 from $13.45 to allow for higher net debt levels and deferred acquisition costs.<\/p>\n

Goldman Sachs rates ((ELD)) as Buy (1) –<\/p>\n
Goldman Sachs has described Elders' FY21 result as very strong, noting organic growth, acquisitional activity and beneficial market condition drove performance. <\/p>\n
The broker expects the company to maintain momentum into FY22 having already secured a pipeline of 27 additional bolt-on acquisitions and further upside expected from the completion of the backward integration program in animal health and crop protection. <\/p>\n
Additionally, market conditions are expected to remain beneficial but Goldman Sachs finds the company well-positioned to deliver another strong year without factoring in external conditions. <\/p>\n

Wilsons rates ((ELD)) as Underweight (5) –<\/p>\n
Elders confirmed a strong FY21 result, with profit growth of 41% driven by a mix of organic improvement, favourable seasonal conditions and acquisitions, Wilsons notes. Structural growth drivers continue to deliver incremental earnings upside.<\/p>\n
But the broker continues to assume currently elevated cyclical factors present a headwind to earnings growth towards the end of FY22 and into FY23.<\/p>\n

Janison Education ((JAN)) is an education technology platform and assessment product provider servicing the K-12 (schools), higher education, and enterprise markets in A&NZ and abroad. Over the next few-years, Janison expects to nearly triple revenue through growth.<\/p>\n
Wilsons initiates coverage of the stock with an Overweight rating and $1.38 target, estimating a total shareholder return of 18% over 12 months.<\/p>\n
Wilsons sees assessment platform and product growth as transformational given an increased exposure to higher quality recurring revenues, margin expansion, and a growing geographic footprint, supported by post-covid back-to-school.<\/p>\n

According to Evans and Partners the acquisition of e-sign company Connective has cemented Nitro Software's position as the third largest digital documentation and signing provider globally. <\/p>\n

Revenue forecasts increase 18% and 15% for FY22 and FY23, with underlying losses also up given integration costs. <\/p>\n

The broker noted Superloop is gaining market share, with its share of new NBN connections increasing to 2.2% in the first quarter of FY22 from 0.7% in the same period in FY21, and is targeting 4-5% medium-term market share, implying a $460-575m revenue target. <\/p>\n

Transportation & Logistics – Overnight Price: $2.36 <\/strong><\/p>\n
Shaw and Partners rates ((SLH)) as Buy (1) –<\/p>\n
At the Silk Logistics' AGM, management was confident of meeting or exceeding forecasts for FY22. At the end of October, FY22 revenue and earnings (EBIT) (pre-AASB16) were tracking 6% and 8% ahead of prospectus estimates.<\/p>\n
The company also referred to negotiations for an acquisition in the E-commerce sector, which should be completed by 2022. According to Shaw and Partners, the shares remain cheap both on valuation multiples and by way of a significant discount to listed peers.<\/p>\n
Buy rating and $3.15 target maintained.<\/p>\n

XRO<\/a>    XERO LIMITED<\/h2>\n
Accountancy – Overnight Price: $145.60 <\/strong><\/p>\n
Evans and Partners rates ((XRO)) as Positive (1) –<\/p>\n
Xero's first half revenue of $505.7m was up 23% year-on-year, but a miss on Evans and Partners' forecast, but the broker expects price rises in Australia and New Zealand and the UK will benefit second half revenue. <\/p>\n
While subscriber growth was softer than expected, the broker notes Xero did notably outperform peers. Revenue forecasts are downgraded -2.5%, -6.3% and -7.6% through to FY24, driven by the third stage of the Making Tax Digital project being pushed back a year. <\/p>\n
The Positive rating is retained and the valuation increases to $197.00.<\/p>\n
