UBS notes Aurizon Holdings' FY25 update came in below expectations, with earnings (EBITDA) -3% below the broker's forecast and pre-tax profit disappointing by -9%.

Management deferred $50m of Network income to FY27, versus the analysts' earlier estimate of $19m, which explains most of the earnings miss. Adjusting for the income timing, UBS sees the earnings miss as closer to -1%.

While capex was revised around -$90m lower, providing free cash flow relief, the broker suggests dividend payments could be at risk.

UBS retains its price target of $3.20 and Neutral rating.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 17.00 cents and EPS of 21.00 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 19.00 cents and EPS of 24.00 cents.

Aurizon Holdings bagged a freight contract for BHP Group's ((BHP)) copper operations in South Australia for a period of up to 15 years (including possible extensions). Revenue of up to $1.5bn or around $150m per year is expected at full run-rate.

Jarden describes this contract win as marking the end of a challenging period for the bulk business, expecting earnings to stabilise ahead of organic improvements.

The broker's FY25 EBITDA forecast is below the company's guidance range at $1.63bn due to the increased risk of non-recovery of client-owed amounts. Overall, bulk EBIT forecasts cut for FY25-27.

Neutral. Target trimmed to $3.15 from $3.20.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 18.30 cents and EPS of 22.80 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 20.30 cents and EPS of 25.80 cents.
