AWAC achieved a September quarter margin of US$52/t, a decline from US$65/t in the prior quarter. This was in line with Deutsche Bank's estimates. Alumina Ltd has received a US$93m dividend and net debt was steady post the payment.
Deutsche Bank does not believe Alumina Ltd will receive a material dividend in the December quarter because of higher capex and restructuring charges. Hold rating and $1.35 target retained.
Target price is $1.35 Current Price is $1.49 Difference: minus $0.135 (current price is over target).
If AWC meets the Deutsche Bank target it will return approximately minus 9% (excluding dividends, fees and charges - negative figures indicate an expected loss).
Current consensus price target is $1.39, suggesting downside of -6.7%(ex-dividends)
The company's fiscal year ends in December.
