Outperform

$2.60

51.60%

Austal posted $40m in underlying profit, Macquarie notes, but this turns to a -$2m loss when accounting for T-ATS provisions (towing, salvage & rescue ship for US navy). FY guidance has been maintained inclusive of provisions.

Support revenue and margins nonetheless grew solidly in both the US and Australia, and Austal continues to invest in expansion. Work on Expeditionary Medical Ships is progressing with an expected award in March 2023.

The upcoming Australian Defence Strategic Review should provide plenty of opportunities, the broker notes, and Austal continues to look for other opportunities to diversify its revenue streams.

Target falls to $2.60 from $2.70, Outperform retained.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY23 dividend of 8.00 cents and EPS of 18.00 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 8.00 cents and EPS of 17.30 cents.
