Neutral

$41.00

11.20%

James Hardie Industries posted a third quarter EBITDA outcome that was ahead of UBS. The strong result has meant an increase in FY26 EBITDA  guidance of 2%, although the broker notes this implies the fourth quarter is unchanged, which may be conservative.

Longer term UBS expects the business will benefit from structural under-building in US housing and material conversion opportunities in both siding and decking.

In the short term the broker also expects the stock to track the broader sentiment in the US housing cycle where any recovery outlook is dependent on improved consumer confidence and more support from lower mortgage rates. Neutral retained. Target rises to $41 from $37.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 170.35 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 0.00 cents and EPS of 184.16 cents.
