Neutral

$1.70

-10.05%

Inconsistent trading conditions over the second half into March through to May on weak consumer sentiment has led to Best & Less lowering second half profit guidance by some -40%. Sales are down -1.4% year to date despite strong Easter and Mother's Day trading.

Despite the company’s upbeat FY24 outlook, citing supportive measures in the recent federal budget, Macquarie remains cautious on Best & Less and its specific consumer segment.

Neutral retained, target falls to $1.70 from $1.80.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY23 dividend of 14.00 cents and EPS of 19.30 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 19.00 cents and EPS of 26.60 cents.
