DFI Retail Group Appears on Track for Long-Term Growth -- Market Talk

Dow Jones03-05 10:18

0218 GMT - DFI Retail Group appears on track for long-term growth, says Alfie Yeo of RHB Research in a note. The retailer's 2025 earnings beat the analyst's estimate, largely from better-than-expected revenue, comparable operating margins and higher-than-anticipated finance and associate income. He expects widening operating margins to continue to drive earnings this year, and raises his 2026-2027 earnings projections by 2%-5%. The stock's valuation also remains reasonable and could rise over the medium term on fund flows, he adds. Yeo raises his target price to US$4.75 from US$4.25 and maintains a buy rating. Shares rise 2.1% to US$4.39. (megan.cheah@wsj.com)
