Monday, 12 December 2022SIQ - SMARTGROUP CORPORATION LIMITED
Citi rates SIQ as Initiation of coverage with Buy (1) - Citi initiates coverage with a Buy rating on two of Australia’s leading salary packaging providers with a preference for McMillan Shakespeare over Smartgroup Corp. It's felt defensive customer bases for both will afford protection from macroeconomic headwinds.
The broker considers the current valuation for Smartgroup is undemanding and notes an attractive dividend yield.
The analyst's preference for McMillan Shakespeare stems from its diversified business model (with 22% of revenue deriving from novated leased compared to 58% for Smartgroup)
