Outperform

$4.50

5.39%

Ventia Services' 2024 profit was up 16% year on year, above the guidance range and ahead of consensus. 

Ventia's 7-10% profit growth guidance highlights ongoing base business growth and also no material impact or contagion from recent ACCC allegations, Macquarie notes. 

It also reflects Ventia's essential services nature which continues to be resilient despite a tighter government budget backdrop. Gearing is down to 1.0x with up to a $100m buyback anounced which represents 3% of market cap.

Macquarie notes the company offers defence renewals, bolt-on acquisition and/or capital management potential. Target rises to $4.50 from $4.26, Outperform retained.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 23.20 cents and EPS of 29.10 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 25.40 cents and EPS of 31.80 cents.

Buy

$4.75

Strong growth in the Defence & Social Infrastructure and Telecommunications divisions propelled FY24 underlying earnings (EBITDA) 9% higher than in FY23 to $245.8m, compared to Canaccord Genuity's $247m estimate.

The broker's main highlight was outlook commentary by management, with guidance upgraded to FY25 NPATA growth of between 10%-12%, up from 7-10%. It's noted key defence contract decisions are pending and will likely be a positive share price catalyst.

An interim dividend of 9.35 cents was declared representing a payout ratio of 75%.

The broker suggests high levels of contracted work underpin the immediate outlook. The Buy rating is maintained, and the target rises to $4.75 from $4.40.

FORECAST
Canaccord Genuity forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 22.00 cents and EPS of 29.00 cents.
Canaccord Genuity forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 23.00 cents and EPS of 31.00 cents.
