$6.65

10.65%

Ord Minnett has reviewed its diversified financials and insurance coverage following a mixed September quarter. The broker sees a muted earnings outlook with ongoing headwinds weighing on near-term growth prospects.

While operating trends remain subdued, current valuation multiples already reflect much of the softer earnings profile, suggests the analyst.

For general insurers, the trading backdrop is becoming more challenging as both investment yields and premium rates soften, though the analyst believes share prices already capture much of this outlook.

Ord Minnett prefers Steadfast Group over the insurers, given brokers typically experience less margin volatility and are trading at relatively inexpensive valuations compared to historical levels.

Target for Steadfast Group eases to $6.65 from $6.80. Buy maintained.

Overweight

$6.90

14.81%

Steadfast Group's FY25 underlying profit of $346.2m was in line with guidance of $340-350m and Jarden’s forecasts. Revenue from consolidated entities was slightly weaker-than-expected, though tighter cost control lifted earnings (EBITA) above expectations.

Broking revenue and EBITA grew 7% despite weaker gross written premium trends, while agency earnings rose 10% with strong revenue margins partly offsetting softer growth in the second half.

The broker highlights the acquisition of a majority stake in US-based Novum Underwriting Partners, signaling an acceleration of Steadfast’s international expansion as domestic premium tailwinds moderate.

While organic growth is slowing, the group continues to diversify with acquisitions and synergies from scale, highlight the analysts.

Jarden raises its target price to $6.90 from $6.75 and retains a Buy rating.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 21.10 cents and EPS of 33.40 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 22.90 cents and EPS of 36.10 cents.
