JB Hi-Fi Shares Likely to Trade Well on 1H Earnings Beat -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Feb 10, 2025

2222 GMT - JB Hi-Fi's shares are likely to remain in favor with investors after its 1H profit beats expectations and January sales look strong, Barrenjoey says. JB Hi-Fi reported a A$285.4 million net profit and A$419.9 million Ebit in 1H. Analyst Tom Kierath says Ebit exceeded consensus forecasts of A$409 million. January like-for-like sales growth of 7.1% at JB Hi-Fi Australia stores is outpacing Barrenjoey's forecast of a 6% increase in 3Q. "Given the beat and strong January we expect the shares to continue trading well," says Barrenjoey, which had a neutral call on JB Hi-Fi ahead of the 1H result. JB Hi-Fi's shares are up some 69% over the past 12 months. (david.winning@wsj.com; @dwinningWSJ)
