Despite guidance for Energy Markets earnings (EBITDA) being lowered by -8% for FY21, most of the impact is offset by a strong upstream performance from the APLNG joint venture, explains Morgans. Thus, the recent share price fall is considered excessive.
The broker highlights that approximately 39% of the guidance drop was driven by an adverse ruling in a dispute with Beach Energy ((BPT)) on Victorian gas repricing and the remainder due to ongoing electricity market weakness.
