Four stocks that soared high - Woolworths, Corporate Travel Management, Super Retail & Data#3

Woolworths Ltd


WOW Details
  • Improving business ended investors’ concerns on the group: Woolworths Ltd (ASX: WOW) stock rose 8.24% on July 25, 2016 after the company gave the update on Operating model review and implementation of the turnaround measures. According to it, WOW gave the clear signs of progress in Australian Supermarkets due to the record voice of the customer scores, the improvement in the team engagement scores and the continued growth in the transaction along with item growth, which is now positive. Moreover, the group review has led to the restructuring costs of $959 million ($571 million non -cash) or $766 million after tax which would be recognized in the FY 2016 results. Accordingly, the decisive action would be taken on General Merchandise with restructuring costs of $460 million, including a $309 million for the impairment of EziBuy. In addition, the company has slowed the new Australian Supermarkets rollout significantly to focus on renewing the existing stores and the provision is taken to close the underperforming or unprofitable stores.
  • Recommendation: We maintain a “Buy” recommendation on this dividend yield stock at the current price of  $24.30
 
Corporate Travel Management Ltd

CTD Details
  • Reconfirmed the FY 16 guidance: Corporate Travel Management Ltd (ASX: CTD) stock rose 4.94% on July 25, 2016 while UBS Group AG became initial substantial holder with 5% voting power. CTD has reconfirmed the guidance for underlying earnings at the top end of a range around $68 million for the full FY 2016. Moreover, as per 1H 2016 results, CTD gets revenue of around 73% from TTV, while 54% of revenue and 80% of underlying EBITDA is owing to organic growth. CTD’s continued investment in client-facing technology and internal business tools has given it a competitive advantage.  Meanwhile, CTD stock has risen 18.73% in the last six months (as of July 22, 2016) and we believe the stock has more potential.
