Outperform

$4.80

32.23%

Kelsian Group's FY24 result met Macquarie's forecasts at the earnings (EBITDA) level and outpaced by 8% at the net profit level thanks to a reduction in depreciation, interest and tax expenses.

Australian buses proved the star performer thanks to a strong margin improvement, but international buses disappointed.

On the downside, capital expenditure guidance disappointed the broker, especially given growing concerns about the company's capital inensity and return on capital.

Macquarie says this is likely to constrain the balance sheet with deleveraging unlikely to materialise before FY26.

EPS forecasts fall -11.6% in FY25; -7% in FY26; and 3% to -9% thereafter. Outperform rating retained. Target price falls to $4.80 from $7.70.

FORECAST
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 18.00 cents and EPS of 35.40 cents.
Macquarie forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 24.00 cents and EPS of 40.70 cents.

Buy

$6.10

68.04%

Canaccord Genuity retains a Buy rating for Kelsian with an unchanged target price of $6.10, following the company’s AGM where EBITDA guidance was reiterated at $283-295m.

The broker notes a review of capital management, with plans to optimise leverage, dividend payout, and capital returns.

Projects in Sydney and Colorado are progressing on budget, observes the analyst, and Kelsian's Marine & Tourism division anticipates further growth from domestic tourism.

FORECAST
Canaccord Genuity forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 17.00 cents and EPS of 35.00 cents.
Canaccord Genuity forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 20.00 cents and EPS of 40.00 cents.
