Buy

$3.70

0.27%

Citi believes Metcash's decision to merge its Independent Hardware Group (IHG) and Total Tools units is a sensible one given subdued market conditions. 

The broker reckons the preference for IHG's CEO Scott Marshall over Total Tools' CEO Richard Murray is understandable as he has vast experience across the company's businesses.

The company also provided FY25 EBIT guidance, which was in line with consensus but slightly below the broker's forecast. Net profit guidance was slightly above consensus.

Buy. Target unchanged at $3.70.

FORECAST
Citi forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 17.50 cents and EPS of 25.80 cents.
Citi forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 20.00 cents and EPS of 27.80 cents.

Overweight

$4.00

8.40%

Jarden highlights Metcash’s FY25 profit is tracking about 1% above consensus, with strength in food offsetting softness in liquor and hardware.

The broker notes a restructure will merge IHG and Total Tools under a single pillar, delaying any near-term demerger catalyst but offering synergy potential.

The analysts' operating earnings (EBIT) forecasts for FY25-27 are cut by -2-4% due to lower volumes and margin pressure in food and liquor, while hardware forecasts remain unchanged. The target is reduced to $4.00 from $4.10.

Jarden views Metcash as undervalued on a sum-of-the-parts basis an retains an Overweight rating.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 21.00 cents and EPS of 24.90 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 23.00 cents and EPS of 26.60 cents.
