GMG Details

Insights of Q3FY22: Goodman Group (ASX: GMG) operates an international industrial and business space property, development and funds management business. The below picture gives an overview of business performance in Q3FY22:

Quarterly Summary (Source: Analysis by Kalkine Group)

Key Risks: The company is exposed to risks arising from inefficient liquidity as its business requires an ample amount of funds to run operations smoothly. In addition, the business could be impacted by regulatory uncertainties.

Outlook: The company anticipates EPS growth of 23% in FY22. The company believes that the AUM growth would primarily be aided by development completions over the next few years and is likely to surpass the toll of $70 billion by 30 June 2022.

Stock Recommendation: Valuation Methodology: P/E Multiple Based Relative Valuation (Illustrative)

Source: Analysis by Kalkine Group

*% Premium/(Discount) is based on our assessment of the company’s NTM trading multiple after considering its key growth drivers, economic moat, stock's historical trading multiples versus peer average/median, and investment risks.

Stock Recommendation: The stock of GMG is trading near its 52-week low level of $16.810, offering a decent opportunity for accumulation. The stock has been corrected by ~10.98% in the past month. The stock has been valued using a P/E multiple-based illustrative relative valuation method and arrived at a target price of low double-digit (in percentage terms). The company might trade at a slight discount to its peers, considering the COVID-19 uncertainties and rising cash cycle days etc. For valuation, a few peers like Shopping Centres Australasia Property Group Re Ltd (ASX: SCP), Charter Hall Retail REIT (ASX: CQR), and LendLease Group (ASX: LLC) have been considered. Considering the expected upside in valuation, rising AUM, decent progress in Q3FY22, optimistic long-term outlook, and current trading levels, we recommend a ‘Buy’ rating on the stock at the closing market price of $17.110, down by ~2.451% as of 17 June 2022.

Markets are trading in a highly volatile zone currently due to certain macroeconomic issues and geopolitical tensions prevailing. Therefore, it is prudent to follow a cautious approach while investing.
