Not bad!
Here's what ABN Amromorgans has to say today ......
A calculated risk to reap rich rewards
As expected, Ausenco has converted the EQM US$407.6m Lumwana project, in Zambia, to an Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC), or fixed price, contract.
A large proportion of the front-end engineering and equipment procurement has been completed, mitigating delivery risk and allowing AAX to cap liabilities and confidently roll the project into a potentially lucrative fixed-price EPC contract.
The project will primarily affect FY07 and FY08 earnings only.
We forecast it will contribute about A$100m pa to total AAX FY07 and FY08 revenue.
Our FY07 and FY08 revenue forecasts have increased to A$229m and A$256m, from A$189m and A$224m respectively.
We have increased our FY07 NPAT forecast by 17.5% to A$17.5m, reflecting the likely improved margins as a result of the Lumwana contract's conversion to an EPC
contract and the continued growth in personnel numbers.
