0038 GMT - Ansell's stronger-than-expected earnings guidance isn't enough to turn Macquarie analysts more bullish on the stock. They raise their fiscal 2027 adjusted EPS forecast to the midpoint of the personal-protective equipment maker's guidance range, but point out that management will look to unwind recent price increases if inflation falls. This is enough to keep them cautious, they tell clients in a note. The Macquarie analysts think the 9.6% share-price jump that followed this week's fiscal 2026 result announcement left the stock fairly valued. Macquarie stays neutral on the stock and lifts its target price 9.3% to 38.60 Australian dollars. Shares are up 5.75% at A$40.44.
