Downgrade to Neutral from Buy

$4.10

13.57%

Liberty Financial's FY23 result largely met consensus and Citi's forecasts. Net interest margins fell shy but bad and doubtfuls proved a small beat.

Common to the industry, exit net interest margins weakened due to funding costs and the company forecast a lower distribution in FY24.

The broker believes the latter reflects growing capital intensity and that higher funding costs, a weak mortgage context and intensifying competition will continue to suppress earnings.

Rating downgraded to Neutral from Buy. Target price eases to $4.10 from $4.15.

FORECAST
Citi forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 27.00 cents and EPS of 44.80 cents.
Citi forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 28.90 cents and EPS of 48.00 cents.
