Accumulate

$12.40

23.75%

Collins Foods reported a 30% rise in 1H26 net profit after tax, which is 12% above Morgans' forecast and consensus.

The quick service retailer reported an easing in same-store sales growth to 1.8% for the weeks 17-24 from 2.9% for the weeks 8-16 due to the higher comps. Growth was maintained via menu upgrades and operational excellence, the analyst states.

Underlying earnings (EBITDA) margin rose 60bps in 1H26 to 15.2% versus 14.6% a year earlier as better same-store sales growth and operational "excellence" improved performance.

For the first seven weeks of 2H26, same-store sales growth rose 3.6% for KFC Australia, up 0.8% y/y, KFC Netherlands up 0.4% y/y and 2.3% growth for Germany.

Management upgraded net profit after tax guidance for FY26 to mid-to-high teens from low-to-mid teens, and Morgans lifted net profit after tax forecasts by 3.2% for FY26 and 3.4% for FY27.

Target price is also raised to $12.40 from $12.20 with no change in the Accumulate rating.

FORECAST
Morgans forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 28.00 cents and EPS of 52.00 cents.
Morgans forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 33.00 cents and EPS of 60.00 cents.

Overweight

$10.10

0.80%

Jarden explains FY25 was a tough year for Collins Foods, with earnings (EBITDA) ending flat, but 2H25 showed an improvement of 5% growth as cost of goods sold declined and labour optimisation assisted.

There are also indications of improving same-store sales growth, and management has guided to mid-to-teens net profit after tax growth for FY26 of around 17% ex-Taco Bell, which is in line with consensus.

Jarden believes Germany offers upside with new restaurant guidance of 40–70 by FY28, alongside ongoing productivity gains.

Overweight rating unchanged. Target price lifts to $10.10 from $9.95.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 EPS of 51.60 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY27 EPS of 60.50 cents.
