In the wake of CAR Group's result, UBS remains positive on the company's ability to grow earnings at a 16% compound annual growth rate over the next three years, driven by yields and volume. The broker raises its  FY24-26 average revenue growth forecast by 6%, and earnings by 3%.

CAR Group is expecting domestic inventories to shift from Private to Dealer, as new car supply and median time-to-sell have normalised back to pre-covid levels. UBS views this positively for Dealer revenues but likely net neutral for earnings.

The stock is trading on 21x two-year forward earnings, one standard deviation above the five-year average, but the broker views this as warranted given a structurally improved growth profile from the international businesses.

Target rises to $38.50 from $32.40, Buy retained.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY24 EPS of 70.00 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY25 EPS of 87.00 cents.
