0103 GMT - Computershare can grow its FY 2025 net profit by a percentage in the high single digits even in a lower interest-rate environment, Morgan Stanley analyst Andrei Stadnik says. With the management's assumptions of a U.S. Fed rate cut in May now looking unlikely, the Australia-listed share-registry company could reinvest in efficiencies rather than allowing a large beat to its FY 2024 margin-income guidance, he says in a note. This could help support 10% growth in so-called management EPS in FY 2025 or 7% growth in net profit, he says. MS resumes coverage of the stock with an overweight rating and A$29.70 target price. Shares are up 0.85% at A$27.30. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
