傑富瑞表示,彩券公司更新後的分紅框架應能將槓桿率控制在合理範圍內。

By

-- 傑富瑞週二在一份報告中指出,儘管國民保險繳款(NIC)對現金流的拖累加劇,股息收益率的提升有限,但澳大利亞彩票公司(ASX:TLC)更新後的股息框架應能將槓桿率維持在合理範圍內。 該公司與維多利亞州政府達成協議,將公共彩券牌照延長40年。執照有效期限至2068年6月30日,公司需向維多利亞州政府預付11.5億澳元的溢價。這筆款項將在2027財年上半年全數支付。 分析師預計,該公司將專注於內生成長機會,並可能尋求其他收入來源,例如優化投資組合。 該投資公司維持對澳洲彩券公司的「持有」評級,並將目標股價從每股6澳元下調至5.60澳元。

Attacks linked to the US-Iran war have choked shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, disrupting global supplies of oil and gas and leading to surging prices. Energy-importing economies such as the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam are facing rising costs and strained supply chains, prompting subsidies, shorter work weeks and emergency measures. reportedly.Analysts say ASEAN's calls for de-escalation have had a limited impact, leaving leaders under pressure to respond.
