Unleveraged Beach Cuts Expenditure Guidance, Highlights Gas Sales Contract Strength; FVE Unchanged
We make no change to our AUD 2.65 fair value for no-moat Beach Energy. As with energy exploration and production peers, the firm has reduced near-term capital expenditure guidance. Fiscal 2020 capital expenditure is reduced to the low end of most recent AUD 875-950 million guidance, with just one quarter left to run. There will be up to a 30% deferral in fiscal 2021 expenditure relative to prior guidance for AUD 650-800 million. Beach has a very strong balance sheet with AUD 151 million in net cash at end February 2020.
