Fletcher Building Bear Reckons Market View Unrealistic -- Market Talk

Dow Jones2025-11-03

0332 GMT - Macquarie analysts reckon the market is too positive on building materials supplier Fletcher Building. The bank's FY 2026 Ebit estimate of NZ$376 million for Fletcher is 7% below the Visible Alpha-compiled mean, they say. "For FY27 the gap is larger at -20%," the analysts write in a note. They reckon New Zealand's residential build rate is well above a sustainable level. The stock of unsold houses in New Zealand is at an 11-year high, they say. Macquarie's target on the stock drops to NZ$1.59/share from NZ$1.67. The analysts expect the stock will "underperform, given predominantly negative catalysts." Fletcher is up 0.9% at NZ$3.29.
