"Any expectations for possible capital management in this result will be dashed by the lower dividend and higher net debt together with the outlook commentary for a fall in total activity in the core Australian construction market," Mr Thackray said.

"We think NSW will stay at the same level but we are seeing weakness in Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia."
