Beach Energy's Earnings Still Face Headwinds -- Market Talk

0136 GMT - Beach Energy remains one of Morgan Stanley's least-preferred Australian energy stocks ahead of its 4Q production update. Recent swings in oil prices have been positive for Beach, and MS raises its EPS estimate for FY 2025 by 4%. However, MS pushes back its expectation for maiden natural gas output from the Waitsia Stage 2 project in Western Australia to the September quarter. "And we lifted tolls and tariffs and third party gas costs [one LNG cargo in June quarter], only partially offset by field production cost decline," analyst Rob Koh says. Those changes result a 7% cut to its FY 2026 EPS forecast, and a 1% reduction to its outlook for FY 2027. (david.winning@wsj.com; @dwinningWSJ)
