傑富瑞表示,DroneShield的收入修正模糊了確認時間,增加了提前確認的風險。

-- 傑富瑞(Jefferies)週三在一份報告中指出,DroneShield(ASX:DRO)第一季的業績更新原本可能只是簡單的業績調整,但由於對已結束季度的收入進行了大幅修正,反而模糊了確認時間,並增加了業績提前確認的風險。 該公司將3月份公佈的季度收入從4月8日更新時的約6,300萬澳元上調至約7,400萬澳元,原因是客戶在先前公佈後接受了該數據。 傑富瑞表示:“雖然從技術上講可以接受,但修正已結束季度的收入會削弱人們對報告數據的最終性的信心,並模糊第一季度和第二季度業績之間的界限,實際上是引入了時間上的不確定性,而不是新的需求。” 報告也指出,儘管員工人數增加,但該公司的人員支出較上一季下降。管理階層指出,工程師的薪資被歸類在行政和公司成本中,並強調這種會計處理方式沒有改變。 這家股票研究公司表示:“從經濟角度來看,這或許可以解釋得通,但我們認為,這種披露可能會掩蓋真實的成本增長趨勢。” 傑富瑞表示,DroneShield 還宣布獲得 FIFA 世界盃合同,這為其民用應用提供了有益的驗證,並提升了其全球知名度,但合約金額微不足道,不太可能對近期營收或盈利產生影響。 傑富瑞將 DroneShield 的目標股價從 3.70 澳元下調至 3.40 澳元,但維持「持有」評級。 DroneShield 股價在上週四的交易中下跌了 4%。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Buy Opinion On Shares Of The Hartford Insurance Group, Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We trim our 12-month target price by $8 to $155, valuing HIG shares at 11.3x our 2026 operating EPS estimate of $13.75 (cut by $0.45) and at 10.6x our 2027 EPS estimate of $14.65 (cut by $0.30), vs. the shares' one-year average forward multiple of 10.3x and peer average of 13x. Q1 EPS of $3.09 vs. $2.20 a year ago missed our $3.60 estimate and $3.39 consensus view. Operating revenue growth of 6.2% was in line with our 6%-10% forecast, amid 5.3% earned premium growth, 13% higher net investment income, and 7.9% fee revenue growth. Q1 written premium growth of 4% and full-year 2025 growth of 7% bode well for 2026 revenue trends as premiums are earned. Underwriting results improved significantly, with Personal Lines combined ratio improving to 87.7% from 106.1% and underlying combined ratio to 85.0% from 89.7%. Business Insurance combined ratio was stable at 94.8%. Weighing the Q1 EPS miss with HIG's decent top-line growth and discounted valuation to peers, we view the shares as undervalued.

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Strong Buy Opinion On Shares Of Baker Hughes

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our 12-month target price by $14 to $82, reflecting a combination of our sum-of-the-parts (SOTP) and DCF models. For our SOTP model, we presume the oilfield services business (about 50% of BKR's franchise) to be valued at about 10x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with major peers) and its industrial energy technology business (the other 50%) valued at 14x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with the peer median). This blended approach, yielding a 12x multiple, implies a value of $73 per share. Meanwhile, our DCF model, using medium-term free cash flow growth of 5% per year, terminal growth of 2.5%, discounted at a WACC of 6.3%, yields intrinsic value of $91 per share. We cut our 2026 EPS estimate by $0.47 to $2.48, but we raise 2027's by $0.07 to $3.24. We acknowledge that the oilfield services business is likely to struggle in 2026 owing to the U.S.-Iran conflict, but the IET business appears quite robust and likely to be a source of both accelerating revenue growth and margins.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Opinion In Shares Of Wab

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target to $285 from $275 following WAB's Q1 earnings print, valuing shares at 24.2x our 2027 EPS outlook of $11.76 (revised from $11.46; 2026 EPS estimate up to $10.57 from $10.50), a slight premium to WAB's long-term historical multiple average given structural improvements in earnings quality. While we are cautious on signs of overcapacity in the freight market, an elevated order backlog (12-month sits at over $9 billion), internal initiatives to shore up margins, and potential synergies from M&A activity positions WAB to continue growing earnings at double-digit rates in 2026-2027, in our view. Despite tariff-related cost pressures, WAB has done a commendable job of defending margins via a mix of pricing, lean manufacturing, and pruning of lower-profit operations. Q1 results were mixed but overall positive, in our view. We maintain our Hold recommendation on shares.
