CTT: Index Inclusion And Steady Sales Guidance Will Support Future Upside

AX1: Index Removal And Dividend Will Shape A Fairly Balanced FY26 Outlook

Analysts have trimmed their Accent Group price target from A$0.75 to A$0.55, citing higher assumed discount rates, a lower profit margin outlook and a higher future P/E multiple, partly offset by a higher revenue growth assumption. What's in the News Accent Group Limited was removed from the S&P/ASX 300 Index, which can affect how index funds and some institutional investors hold the stock.
