2252 GMT - Wealth-management platform provider Netwealth's bull at Jefferies was encouraged by its 4Q update. Funds under administration rose by 19%. "Net Inflows of A$3.2 billion were impacted by a small number of partial withdrawals from UHNW accounts, which is not entirely uncommon, with payments to beneficiaries, and the purchase of off-platform assets," analyst Simon Fitzgerald says. The most interesting news likely relates to 75 new financial intermediary relationships, he says. "In our view, this sheds some light on the group's inflow target of A$18 billion-A$20 billion for FY27," Jefferies says. It retains a "buy" call and A$30.25/share price target on Netwealth, which ended Thursday at A$23.50. (david.winning@wsj.com; @dwinningWSJ)
