On second take, Woolworths Group's September-quarter sale missed consensus but met UBS's forecasts. Australian sales outpaced but New Zealand disappointed. Big W sales outpaced.

Management remains cautious while trading to date in October remained largely in line. Customers are seeking out value propositions.

The broker observes and rapid deterioration in New Zealand sales and believes market share is being lost to Foodstuffs, amidst ongoing tough conditions. The company is now forecasting a December-half fall in NZ earnings (EBIT) from the previous two halves.

For Big W, the Christmas sales period remains all-important.

EPS forecasts rise 1% for FY24; and 0.7% for FY25.

Buy. Target $42.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 116.00 cents and EPS of 158.00 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 119.00 cents and EPS of 162.00 cents.
