Further to the first half results, Citi notes there are multiple levers for Coles Group to improve profit outcomes such as private-label positioning, further reductions in theft rates and productivity improvements. The broker increases EBIT forecasts for FY24 by 4%.

Coles remains the broker's preferred supermarket with FY25 forecasts 5% ahead of consensus and the variance due to a combination of higher sales and margins in supermarkets helped by the payoff from the Witron investment. Buy rating. Target is raised to $19 from $18.

FORECAST
Citi forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 71.00 cents and EPS of 83.10 cents.
Citi forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 75.00 cents and EPS of 88.20 cents.
