Aurizon reaffirmed fiscal 2027 guidance for underlying EBITDA of AUD 1.725 billion-AUD 1.775 billion and DPS of AUD 0.23-AUD 0.24. Volumes in the four months to Oct. 31 were mixed. Coal haulage fell 4%, while noncoal bulk and containerized freight rose 9% and 14%, respectively.
The regulated rail network is performing well, and a proposed 10-year access undertaking from July 2027 would provide long-term earnings certainty if approved.
Over 80% of earnings is exposed to domestic coal production, and high Queensland royalties are deterring miners from investing in volume growth.
