Turners Automotive expect another record result for FY24
Turners Automotive Group Limited (NZX/ASX: TRA) have announced today that they are expecting FY24
to be another record profit result for the business. Positive trading results so far have the company on
track for the FY24 result to be ahead of the record FY23 result of $45.5M Net Profit before Tax.
The forecasted dividend is expected to be at least 24 cents per share (+4%), and Directors have declared
a Q1 dividend of 6.0 cents per share fully imputed which will be paid on 27 October 2023. The dividend
reinvestment plan will apply for this distribution.
Segment outlook:
Auto Retail - Upside in H2 from new branches (Timaru and Napier). Supply-constrained market
to continue with supply of vehicles an advantage for Turners. The transition of wholesale auction
units into retail sales channel to underpin further market share growth.
Finance - Quality and margin management remain key priorities within the finance division in
the short term. The economic downturn is impacting arrears but they remain within expected
levels. Margins expected to expand in near term although still some sensitivity to the OCR track.
Insurance - New policy sales benefiting from our distribution and market share gains and claims
ratios are stable. Investment returns continue to improve.
Credit Management – debt load levels are increasing as is the volume of payment arrangements
in place. As the economic conditions worsen we expect to see further lift in debt loads from
corporate and SME clients. We are well positioned for the next stage of the NZ credit cycle.
Although NZ still has a high level of economic uncertainty, Turners’ business has continued to perform
exceptionally well.
