Morgans gives its verdict on A2 Milk and these ASX shares

The Motley Fool·12/02/2025 22:41:11
Listen to the news

The team at Morgans has been busy running the rule over a number of popular ASX shares in recent days.

Let's see what the broker is saying about them and whether it thinks they are in the buy zone right now:

A2 Milk Company Ltd (ASX: A2M)

Morgans was pleased with this infant formula company's strong start to FY 2026 and has upgraded its estimates to reflect this.

However, while it is a fan of the company, it feels that its shares are fair value at current levels and has retained its hold rating with a $9.40 price target. It said:

A2M has had a stronger than expected start to FY26 and consequently, it has upgraded its sales and NPAT guidance. We have upgraded our forecasts and forecast strong growth from FY27 onwards. While we rate the company and its management team highly, we believe that the stock is trading on fair multiples (FY27 PE of 31.5x and PEG of 1.8x). We maintain a Hold rating with a new price target of A$9.40.

Mach7 Technologies Ltd (ASX: M7T)

Morgans has responded positively to the release of this enterprise image management systems provider's strategic transformation plans. It believes it positions the company for sustainable growth in the coming years.

As a result, the broker has retained its buy rating with a trimmed price target of 76 cents. This is almost 70% higher than where its shares trade today. It said:

M7T released its strategic transformation plans at its AGM, introducing a customer-focused operating model and the upcoming Flamingo AI platform to drive long-term growth, efficiency, and new revenue through modernised imaging solutions. Despite potential near-term revenue softness, the transformation is well-aligned with industry trends and positions M7T for sustainable growth and signals genuine innovation and a commitment to delivering what radiology customers want.

VEEM Ltd (ASX: VEE)

A third ASX share that Morgans has been looking at is marine, defence, and mining products manufacturer.

While its recent trading update was softer than expected, the broker remains positive and sees plenty of upside for investors. In light of this, it has upgraded its shares to a speculative buy rating with a $1.10 price target. This implies potential upside of 30% for investors from current levels. It commented:

VEE's AGM update was softer than expected, primarily due to delays in receiving ASC orders and a hold-up in obtaining security clearance for the Hunter-class propeller project. Additionally, anticipation around the launch of the Mark III gyro led to purchase hesitancy among potential customers in 1H26. These delays have shifted some work to 2H26, which management expects to be stronger, driven by significant contributions from defence (particularly ASC).

While the trading update was disappointing, we believe VEE's outlook remains positive with multiple growth opportunities across defence (eg, HII, Northrop Grumman, Hunter Class Frigate Program), propulsion (VEEM Extreme, Sharrow), and gyros (Mark III). Timing of order flow remains uncertain, which is likely to cause earnings volatility in the near term. However, the long-term earnings potential of these opportunities remains significant.
