Outperform

$26.00

0.74%

Macquarie notes capital management was the focus in the FY23 results for Computershare, with the final dividend missing consensus estimates while a $750m buyback was announced.

The broker assesses the buyback now provides downside protection, and accretion from ongoing reinvestment of cash will deliver upside risk to earnings per share over the medium term.

As inflationary trends normalise further opportunities for cost reductions could also materialise. The company will provide an update on the US mortgage services sale at the AGM.

Outperform. Target is $26.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 85.13 cents and EPS of 178.97 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 101.22 cents and EPS of 203.04 cents.
