$27.00

24.08%

BlueScope Steel missed 2H25 earnings, according to Ord Minnett, due to higher Australasian costs and a write-down in the value of its US-based coil coatings business, which was acquired for $439m in 2022.

Management’s 1H26 guidance missed expectations by -5%, with ongoing uncertainty around US demand and the impact of tariffs, though with a more upbeat outlook for Australian residential construction.

Ord Minnett has lowered its EPS forecasts by -20.9% for FY26 and -11.7% for FY27. Buy rating maintained, with forecast stronger cash flow from FY27 which could underpin capital management of around $400m per annum.

Target price lowered to $27 from $29.

Neutral

$24.50

12.59%

BlueScope Steel reported 2H25 earnings (EBIT) of $429m, at the top of guidance but Jarden was slightly underwhelmed due to weak New Zealand, Australian and US coated products.

Cost reductions, North Star and Asia helped, observe the analysts, though return on invested capital (ROIC) of 6.2% was below the cost of capital.

The broker highlights a -US$280m (-$439m in Australian dollars) impairment in US coated products, halving expected sustainable EBIT to around US$35m.

Despite global uncertainty and higher energy costs, Jarden sees FY26 earnings momentum from cost-outs and resilient US spreads.

The broker cuts its target price to $24.50 from $25.00 and keeps a Neutral rating.

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 60.00 cents and EPS of 168.90 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY27 dividend of 60.00 cents and EPS of 193.70 cents.
