Wesfarmers Bear Sounds Upbeat Following Annual Result -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Aug 28, 2025

0143 GMT - Jarden analysts say Wesfarmers delivered "another quality result" with its FY 2025 earnings. Jarden, which has an underweight call on Wesfarmers, says that cash flow was strong and the trading update was positive. They say that a capital-distribution plan to shareholders was also a positive, though it suggests a low likelihood of major M&A in the near term. They add that there were no negative surprises and that the result is "another reminder why WES trades at such a premium." Wesfarmers reported that its annual net profit, excluding significant items, rose about 4%. Wesfarmers shares haven't moved much following the result, with the stock down 0.8% in recent trade.
