Lottery Corp's Licence Renewal Delivers Necessary Downgrade -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
05/06

Lottery Corp's licence extension in Australia's Victoria state results in "the downgrade we had to have," says Jefferies analyst Kai Erman. Lottery Corp has secured a 40-year extension of its lottery licence in Victoria. Jefferies says this security is positive. Still, Lottery Corp paid A$1.15 billion to extend the licence. Jefferies downgrades its FY 2027 EPS forecast by 14%, citing higher net invested capital and amortization. It retains a hold call on Lottery Corp's stock. "At 18x FY 2027 Ebitda we remain sidelined on valuation grounds and lack of clarity on incremental earnings opportunities beyond portfolio improvements which have been a feature since demerger" from Tabcorp, Jefferies says. Lottery Corp ended Tuesday at A$5.57.(david.winning@wsj.com; @dwinningWSJ)
