Shares in Bega Cheese Ltd are up .75% at $6.75 after UBS released a positive market note on the company over the weekend.
BGA had dropped about 8% since the half-year results released last Wednesday, despite an improvement in all key financial metrics over the previous corresponding period.
However, it seems the market might have been too harsh on the dairy company. Bega’s first-half normalised EBITDA of $70 million exceeded the $64 million forecast by the street.
We see scope for BGA to reach $7.42 a share and find the stock attractive at the current price, based on 20X earnings.
Our ALGO engine triggered a buy signal in BGA at $6.81 on January 16th. BGA will go ex-dividend tomorrow paying 5.5 cents per share, fully franked.
