Let’s review some notable picks from our screened stocks.
Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★☆
Overview: Helia Group Limited, along with its subsidiaries, operates in the loan mortgage insurance sector mainly in Australia and has a market capitalization of A$1.60 billion.
Operations: Helia generates revenue primarily from its loan mortgage insurance business, amounting to A$559.63 million. The company’s financial performance is influenced by its net profit margin trends.
Helia Group, a smaller player in the Australian financial landscape, is trading at 66.9% below its estimated fair value and offers good relative value compared to peers. Despite recent earnings growth of 19.4%, surpassing the industry average, future prospects appear challenging with an anticipated annual revenue decrease of 18.9% over three years due to client losses and policy changes like the Home Guarantee Scheme expansion. The company’s net income for the first half of 2025 was A$133.7 million, up from A$97 million last year, yet profit margins are expected to drop from 47.9% to 34.7%. Helia’s market share and capital strength offer some stability amidst these pressures; however, heavy dividend payouts could limit reinvestment opportunities crucial for sustaining competitiveness in a shifting market environment.
ASX:HLI Earnings and Revenue Growth as at Nov 2025
Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: MyState Limited operates in Australia, offering banking, trustee, equipment finance, and managed fund products and services through its subsidiaries, with a market capitalization of A$736.44 million.
Operations: MyState Limited generates revenue primarily from its MyState Bank segment, contributing A$140.27 million, and also earns from Wealth Management at A$14.82 million and Auswide Bank (including Selfco) at A$30.98 million. The net profit margin provides insight into the company’s profitability relative to total revenue streams across its segments.
With total assets of A$15.3B and equity at A$736M, MyState stands out in the banking sector with a focus on low-risk funding sources, as 76% of liabilities are customer deposits. The bank’s total loans amount to A$13.2B, with an appropriate bad loan ratio of 0.7%, but it has a low allowance for these loans at 14%. Earnings grew by 0.8% last year, surpassing the industry average, and future growth is projected at an impressive 16.2% annually. However, significant shareholder dilution occurred recently despite promising merger synergies and digital upgrades enhancing operational efficiency and user experience.
ASX:MYS Earnings and Revenue Growth as at Nov 2025
Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★★
Overview: SHAPE Australia Corporation Limited, along with its subsidiaries, operates in the construction, fitout, and refurbishment sector for commercial properties across Australia with a market cap of A$533.59 million.
Operations: SHAPE Australia’s primary revenue stream is from its heavy construction segment, generating A$956.87 million. The company’s market cap stands at A$533.59 million.
SHAPE Australia, a nimble player in the construction sector, has seen its earnings grow by 31.9% over the past year, outpacing industry norms. Trading at A$4.24 per share, it sits 19.3% below its estimated fair value of A$5.27, suggesting potential upside for investors willing to consider its prospects amidst challenges like competitive pressures and reliance on office fit-outs. The company is debt-free and boasts high-quality earnings with a focus on sustainability and digital innovation to enhance margins currently at 2.2%. Recent board changes aim to bolster M&A capabilities as part of their growth strategy moving forward.
