Galliford Try - Post 1H23 Results Consensus Overview

Earlier this month, Galliford Try reported a strong set of interim results including a 65% YoY increase in adjusted profit before tax and an increase in the Divisional operating margin. The financial performance prompted a 36% YoY increase in the interim dividend to 3.0p per share. In our view these results confirmed that Galliford Try is making good progress against its Sustainable Growth Strategy. Following the results, changes to consensus estimates were modest with the most notable being a 4% increase in consensus adjusted profit before tax for FY23, following positive management guidance. We note that the consensus dividend forecast of 8.5p implies a cut in the FY23 final YoY which seems unlikely to us. There was a 3.5% increase in the average target price to 249p, 45% ahead of the current share price.
