This story features AMPOL LIMITED, and other companies. For more info SHARE ANALYSIS: ALD

An additional news report on the recommendation, valuation, forecast and opinion changes for ASX-listedequities.

In addition to The Australian Broker Call Report, which is published and updated daily (Mon-Fri), FNArenahas now added The Australian Broker Call *Extra* Edition, featuring additional sources of research and insights on ASX-listedstocks, also enlarging the number of stocks that make up the FNArenauniverse.

One key difference is the *Extra* Edition will not be updated daily, but merely “regularly” depending on availabilityofsuitable 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.

Investors using the *Extra* Edition as a source of input for their own share market research should thus take into account that information after publicationmay not be up to date, or yet awaiting another update by FNArena’steam of journalists.

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.

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.

Goldman Sachs rates ((ALD)) as Initiation of coverage with Sell (5) –

Although Ampolclosed out the March quarter on a 5.4% increase, Goldman Sachs reports this result is an overly positive market reaction.Excluding foreign exchange movements the first quarter results were -14% below forecasts.

According to the broker recent results in convenience retail can be attributed to consumer preference for convenience stores over larger retail formats duringCOVID-19 lockdowns. Despite this, continued growth in convenience retail is a focus for Ampolinvestors, a strategy the broker believes needs further de-risking.

The $165m Caltex rebranding program has so far completed 105 stores, with a further 100 to be targeted each month from March, but Goldman Sachs raises concerns that not all network owners are prepared to re-brand.
