AGL Energy's Former Bull Warns of Downgrade Cycle -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
03/11

0129 GMT - AGL Energy loses its bull at Macquarie, where the Australian power retailer is seen entering an earnings downgrade cycle. Lowering their recommendation to neutral from outperform, a note from one of the investment bank's analysts warn that the near-term outlook for earnings is bleak until coal plants close in fiscal 2029. With government ensuring that replacement capacity is in place prior to closure, the note cautions that oversupply will weigh until then. AGL is favorably leveraged to the first coal plant closures, but Macquarie lowers its fiscal 2028 earnings forecast by 28% and only sees power prices recovering after that. Target price falls 7.6% to A$9.61. Shares are down 5.1% at A$9.06. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
