Ord Minnett

Hold

$9.50

12.56%

FY23 results underwhelmed Ord Minnett and were slightly below expectations. The broker considers the acquisition of the Alinta Energy Pilbara business expensive, albeit small in the overall APA Group business.

Amid no obvious synergies from combining the businesses, management has emphasised the large renewable energy and storage development pipeline.

The broker is not convinced there is much value in a prospective development pipeline of early-stage projects in remote Western Australia, given relatively low barriers to entry. Hold rating maintained. Target is reduced to $9.50 from $10.20.

FORECAST
Ord Minnett forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 56.00 cents and EPS of 24.80 cents.
Ord Minnett forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 57.20 cents and EPS of 28.40 cents.
