UBS rates A2M as Upgrade to Buy from Neutral (1) -

The latest survey of pregnant women in China conducted by UBS has found being a premium and trusted brand remains of importance, but this year has seen a big increase in the importance of being sourced from a trusted country, especially online. 

New Zealand clearly gets a nod given A2 is rising rapidly up the charts on brand awareness and performance. A2 now rates sixth on "bought most often" and the broker sees this as highly encouraging as the company rolls out physical stores.

UPDATED

Ord Minnett rates BWP as Lighten (4) -

The first half result shows that around 20% of the portfolio will expire over the next  3-4 years. Ord Minnett observes this is reasonably modest by industry standards, but two thirds of the expiries are existing Wesfarmers ((WES)) tenants.

The broker expects, while the company should be able to address a number of these expiries in advance, there will be an impact on occupancy and comparable income growth. FY18 and FY19 will be most affected.

Lighten retained. Target rises to $2.83 from $2.78.

Target price is $2.83 Current Price is $2.86 Difference: minus $0.03 (current price is over target).

UBS rates BWP as Neutral (3) -

BWP's distributable income beat the broker by 1% thanks to lower costs. Guidance of about 3% dividend growth is unchanged. 

The challenge for the trust is nevertheless the pending move by Bunnings to up and leave some old stores to move into the newer stores left behind by Masters in preferred locations. BWP has suggested some longer term ideas to counter this but in the near term has not de-risked the impact, the broker warns.

Neutral retained.Target falls to $2.91 from $3.05.

Target price is $2.91 Current Price is $2.86 Difference: $0.05
If BWP meets the UBS target it will return approximately 2% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Morgan Stanley rates CAR as Overweight (1) -

First half results broadly met Morgan Stanley's expectations. The question for the broker is whether the company can return to double-digit growth in earnings per share.

UPDATED

UBS rates CAR as Neutral (3) -

Carsales' result was in line with the broker. The fact it wasn't a miss is what prompted the share price rally, the broker suggests.  Core earnings were pleasingly strong, offsetting forewarned substantial declines in finance revenues.

Second half guidance of solid growth is typically vague but the broker is happy with its FY17 earnings growth forecast of 10%. While the stock is not as expensive as it has been in the past, yesterday's rally has it at fair value as far as the broker is concerned.  

Neutral and $10.50 target retained.

Target price is $10.50 Current Price is $10.83 Difference: minus $0.33 (current price is over target).

Citi rates CIM as Sell (5) -

The FY report comprised several one-offs, point out Citi analysts. Their view remains: lack of clarity on top of lack of free float. Hence, the Sell rating remains in place.

The analysts do not yet want to assume higher margins, despite the potential for integration benefits from UGL. Price target jumps to $27.72 from $19.72. It appeared, to the analysts, that management didn't have a good grip on what the future actually holds.

Deutsche Bank rates CIM as Sell (5) -

2016 results were at the top end of guidance and ahead of Deutsche Bank, demonstrating improved demand in end markets.

Nevertheless, Deutsche Bank is cautious, as 2017 guidance implies low or negative organic growth and low margin contracts could begin to affect earnings.

Group margins have reached peak levels and the stock appears expensive to the broker. Sell rating retained. Target rises to $31.39 from $27.48.

Target price is $31.39 Current Price is $38.85 Difference: minus $7.46 (current price is over target).

Macquarie rates CIM as Upgrade to Outperform from Neutral (1) -

2016 net profit was above Macquarie's estimates and at the top end of guidance. FY17 net profit guidance is 14% ahead of the broker's previous estimates, at $640-700m.

The broker notes the company has now hit the upper end of guidance in each of the last two years, which provides a template for 2017. The project pipeline is robust with $100bn in relevant projects coming on stream in 2017.

The broker upgrades to Outperform from Neutral and raises the target to $42.50 from $35.02. 2017 and 2018 earnings per share estimates are upgraded by 17% and 15% respectively.

Morgan Stanley rates CIM as Underweight (5) -

2016 headline net profit was strong, but adjusting for what Morgan Stanley believes are non-operating items taken above the line and the impact of UGL, net profit was actually below estimates. 2017 net profit guidance is ahead of estimates.

Moreover, if not for around $578m in pre-payments, cash flow would have been significantly weaker, the broker calculates. As a result, Morgan Stanley continues to envisage a disconnect between the headline figures and the underlying dynamics.

Morgan Stanley retains its Underweight rating and Cautious industry view. Target is steady at $12.40.

Target price is $12.40 Current Price is $38.85 Difference: minus $26.45 (current price is over target).
If CIM meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately minus 68% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

GMA  GENWORTH MORTGAGE INSURANCE AUSTRALIA LIMITED

Banks

Overnight Price: $2.87

Macquarie rates GMA as Outperform (1) -

2016 underlying net profit beat Macquarie's estimates. The outlook for 2017 is more cautious than the broker expected, specifically the claims ratio guidance of 40-50%.

The company also flagged customer re-contracting risk, while a lack of capital management in the form of special dividends disappointed the broker.

Macquarie expects earnings will support around a 10% dividend yield for 2017 and 2018 and the forecast trajectory of regulatory capital requirements supports a capital return of around $600m over the same period. Outperform retained. Target is reduced to $3.56 from $3.67.

UPDATED

UBS rates GMA as Neutral (3) -

While Genworth's result was slightly better than the broker had expected, and delinquencies remained largely stable, weak full year guidance was the issue, highlighting the current challenge for insurers, the broker suggests, of negative operational leverage.

The likely loss of the company's second largest customer doesn't help either. In theory, there's a greater argument for capital returns, the broker notes, but Genworth is now citing a need to invest in new initiatives. Neutral retained. Target falls to $2.80 from $2.90.

Target price is $2.80 Current Price is $2.87 Difference: minus $0.07 (current price is over target).

The company has shipped its first spodumene concentrate. Open pit mining has commenced with the company guiding 260,000t of concentrate in 2017.

These are strong catalysts for the stock and Macquarie believes the successful re-design and re-commissioning of Mt Cattlin is a significant achievement.

Whether longer-term demand conditions are strong enough to incentivise the construction of Sal de Vida remains to be seen, in Macquarie's opinion. The broker maintains an Underperform rating. Target rises to $0.46 from $0.30.

Macquarie rates PMV as Upgrade to Outperform from Neutral (1) -

The company has released unaudited results for its retail business following speculation the first half was weak. The first half is not as bad as feared, in Macquarie's view, with the headline numbers largely in line.

The broker had previously believed there was downside risk to forecasts, as the company was cycling a strong previous corresponding half as well as currency headwinds, and there has been mixed feedback regarding the apparel sector over Christmas.

With the perceived earnings risk subsiding, the broker takes the opportunity to upgrade to Outperform from Neutral. Target is raised to $16.84 from $16.43.

Target price is $16.84 Current Price is $14.01 Difference: $2.83
If PMV meets the Macquarie target it will return approximately 20% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Current consensus price target is $15.17, suggesting upside of 10.9% (ex-dividends)

UBS rates PMV as Upgrade to Buy from Neutral (1) -

Pre-announced first half numbers from Premier show sales in line with UBS' expectation and earnings exceeding. The broker had previously warned of downside risk from lagged A$ hedges. 

With the result offering relief, investors can now focus on gross margin improvement and the Smiggle rollout, UBS suggests. Aside from more stores, Smiggle is looking at new geographies as well. With Premier now out of danger, the broker upgrades to Buy. 

Target rises to $16.85 from $16.60.

Citi analysts spotted a strong 2016 result and both EPS and DPS estimates have been lifted. For 2017 the new DPS forecast is now US311c.

Deutsche Bank rates RIO as Buy (1) -

2016 earnings were in line with Deutsche Bank's estimates. Aluminium and iron ore divisions beat on lower costs.

Macquarie rates RIO as Outperform (1) -

2016 earnings were broadly in line with Macquarie's expectations. The company is seen delivering on its commitment by announcing a strong final dividend and a US$500m buy-back.

Macquarie believes there is potential for more capital management in 2017, with buoyant iron ore prices and the pending sale of Coal  & Allied. This suggests to the broker that Rio Tinto could return over  US$5bn in 2017, an effective cash return yield of 6%.

Outperform maintained. Target rises to $79 from $77.

Target price is $79.00 Current Price is $65.69 Difference: $13.31

Morgan Stanley rates RIO as Overweight (1) -

2016 numbers were in line with Morgan Stanley's estimates. The broker suspects the buy-back of US$500m may marginally disappoint some. More importantly, the cash dividend was better than the broker estimated.

The broker believes the shares remain vulnerable to changes in sentiment around the rate of Chinese steel consumption. Moreover, after a long period of disposals, Morgan Stanley suspects the company is likely to start re-investing and the return on those investments will be the main value driver going forward.

The broker retains Overweight rating and a $71 target. Industry view: Attractive.

Target price is $71.00 Current Price is $65.69 Difference: $5.31
If RIO meets the Morgan Stanley target it will return approximately 8% (excluding dividends, fees and charges).

Current consensus price target is $70.61, suggesting upside of 8.6% (ex-dividends)

The company's fiscal year ends in December.

Morgans rates RIO as Hold (3) -

2016 net profit was in line with Morgans. A highlight was increased shareholder returns, with a US$1.25 final dividend and plans for a US$500m buy-back.

Morgans believes a multi-year recovery phase for commodity markets is developing but, in the short term, iron ore and coal have overshot on the upside.

The broker recommends adding to positions on share price weakness, but maintains a Hold rating as the stock is trading close to its target. Target is revised up to $62.85 from $57.16.

Target price is $62.85 Current Price is $65.69 Difference: minus $2.84 (current price is over target).
If RIO meets the Morgans target it will return approximately minus 4% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).

Current consensus price target is $70.61, suggesting upside of 8.6% (ex-dividends)

The company's fiscal year ends in December.

Morgans forecasts a full year FY17 dividend of 217.68 cents and EPS of 436.70 cents.
