Underweight

$20.00

-15.97%

Morgan Stanley highlights a -27% decline in US hot rolled coil (HRC) prices has caused spreads to decline by around -46% since the beginning of 2024, and leading indicators remain soft.

The broker points out these declining spreads contrast with BlueScope Steel buoyant share price performance, and an Underweight rating is maintained.

The broker believes there is potentially -20% downside to the midpoint of management's 2H guidance for earnings (EBIT) of between $620-690m.

The $20 target is unchanged. Industry view: In-Line.

FORECAST
Morgan Stanley forecasts a full year FY24 dividend of 50.00 cents and EPS of 218.00 cents.
Morgan Stanley forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 50.00 cents and EPS of 137.00 cents.
