Hold

$13.50

-10.36%

Given its third quarter update, QBE Insurance is on track to meet its guidance for 10% growth in gross written premiums. The company reported investment income of US$316m in the quarter, bringing year-to-date returns to US$978m.

Catastrophe claims of US$950m to date are tracking well against a full year allowance of US$1.3bn, but Ord Minnett does warn that a potential earnings benefit will likely be offset by high inflationary costs.

The Hold rating and target price of $13.50 are retained.

FORECAST
Ord Minnett forecasts a full year FY23 dividend of 98.10 cents and EPS of 226.53 cents.
Ord Minnett forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 105.64 cents and EPS of 214.76 cents.
