Morgan Stanley	20/08/2025	5	Underweight	$13.00	-10.84%	Morgan Stanley assesses Sims' FY25 result as a modest shortfall vs consensus, with direction of 12-month EPS likely to be modestly revised lower. FY25 EBIT rose 198% to $175m, beating the consensus by 6% but net profit, while swinging to positive, fell short of consensus by -7% due to higher tax. The broker notes the outlook is constructive with tailwinds from non-ferrous demand and US tariff support, and scrap demand driven by data centre/AI adoption and circular economy trends. On the negative side, Chinese steel export is seen as a drag on ferrous prices. Underweight. Target price $13. Industry View: In-Line.
