GrainCorp Faces 'Potentially Ugly Scenario' for FY 2027 Volumes -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Apr 28

The weather outlook and talk of El Niño sets up a potentially ugly scenario for GrainCorp's FY 2027 crop volumes, says Ord Minnett. GrainCorp is facing materially higher fertiliser, energy, and chemical input costs as a result of the Middle East conflict. Together, they are likely to reduce winter crop plantings and lower FY 2027 grain production volumes, analyst John Lawlor says. "While near-term price-led grain movements support 2HFY26 throughput volumes, we believe the risk profile is asymmetric particularly when the possibility of El Niño is considered," Ord Minnett says. Its FY 2026 Ebitda forecast rises 11% to A$244 million, reflecting price movements. But its FY 2027 and FY 2028 Ebitda expectations fall 25% and 23%, respectively, due to lower volumes. Ord Minnett downgrades GrainCorp to accumulate, from buy. (david.winning@wsj.com; @dwinningWSJ)
