I think it’s very interesting when numerous analysts are positive about an ASX share with buy ratings.
It’s not just one investment professional that’s excited about a business, there’s multiple analysts that are calling the business a buy.
It could indicate that there’s a clear opportunity on offer.
CAR Group Ltd (ASX: CAR)
CAR Group describes itself as a global digital marketplace business, with a goal of being the global leader in online vehicle marketplaces. It operates in a number of vehicle categories – automotive, commercial, industrial and leisure.
It operates in several countries, including Australia (Carsales), South Korea (Encar), the US (Trader Interactive), Chile (Chileautos) and Brazil (it’s the majority shareholder of Webmotors).
According to Commsec, there are currently 12 buy ratings on the business, making it one of the most positively rated ASX shares right now.
The business had a solid FY26, reporting revenue growth of 6% to $1.25 billion, net profit growth of 14% to $314 million and full-year dividend growth of 8% to 86 cents per share.
CAR Group expects to deliver solid growth in FY27. In the 2027 financial year, in constant currency terms, revenue is expected to grow between 11% and 14%, while adjusted operating profit (EBITDA) is expected to grow between 10% and 13%, and adjusted net profit is guided to grow between 9% and 12%.
In Australia, the business is expecting high single-digit revenue growth. Meanwhile, in North America and Latin America, revenue is expected to grow by double digits.
