UBS analysts see limited downside risk for Pexa following a draft pricing review by Australian state regulators. Keeping a neutral rating on the property settlements platform, the UBS analysts tell clients in a note that the regulator's draft recommendations are more onerous than anticipated. They reckon that the likelihood of material cuts to transfer pricing compounds a weakening volume outlook due to higher interest rates and changes to capital gains tax. However, a 21% one-day share-price drop last week helps the stock maintain its neutral rating. The analysts see a valuation of 8.00 Australian dollars a share if their bear scenario were to play out. As it is, they cut their target price 23% to A$9.80. Shares are up 1.8% at A$8.695. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
