Buy

$5.40

24.42%

Southern Cross Electrical Engineering's FY26 underlying EBITDA rose 40%, beating Bell Potter's forecast by 2% and guidance by 3%.

Stronger margins and contributions from Force Fire offset lower revenue following completion of several major projects.

The analyst highlights a record $810m order book and multiple large-scale data centre tenders, with FY27 guidance for EBITDA above $100m and a tripling of data centre revenue to $360m reiterated.

The balance sheet is also well positioned for growth, with net cash of $240m following the $150m equity raising, providing capacity to fund working capital and potential acquisitions.

Bell Potter makes no material changes to forecasts, retains Buy and an unchanged $5.40 target.

FORECAST
Bell Potter forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 10.50 cents and EPS of 19.60 cents.
Bell Potter forecasts a full year FY28 dividend of 11.00 cents and EPS of 22.10 cents.

Hold

$4.70

8.29%

Shaw and Partners maintains a Hold rating for Southern Cross Electrical Engineering with an unchanged price target of $4.70 following solid FY26 financial results that included underlying EBITDA of $77m, up 40% versus the previous corresponding period and consistent with guidance.

FY26 recurring revenue rose to 31% of total revenue, while gross margin expanded to a healthy 19%.

Management's FY27 guidance remains unchanged with EBITDA expected to reach at least $100m, supported by an order book standing at $810m.

The broker's estimates reflect minor forecast adjustments for FY27 to FY29. As the shares are already trading close to the target, the rating remains on Hold.

FORECAST
Shaw and Partners forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 11.00 cents and EPS of 19.20 cents.
Shaw and Partners forecasts a full year FY28 dividend of 12.00 cents and EPS of 22.60 cents.
