AusNet’s Returns Are Falling but Revenue to Rise on Network Expansion

Business Strategy and Outlook

AusNet Services’ security price has risen in recent months in sympathy with Spark Infrastructure, after the latter received a takeover offer. While the two businesses are very similar, AusNet is 51%-owned by Singapore Power and China’s State Grid, which may deter any takeover approach. AusNet trades at a 16% premium to our unchanged AUD 1.70 fair value estimate, offering a distribution yield of 4.8% with modest growth potential.

 As the owner of monopoly infrastructure assets, revenue is highly defensive but heavyhanded regulation rules out excess returns and thus an economic moat. Returns at its three regulated networks are reset every five years to ensure they aren’t overearning, with no meaningful ability to appeal decisions. Slightly better returns can be achieved by cutting costs below allowances set by the regulator. But cost allowances get trued up every five years and outperforming is getting more difficult as privatised networks get more efficient.

Company’s Future Outlook

Timing of the Victorian electricity distribution network’s regulatory reset was fortuitous. The spike in 10-year government bond yields in early 2021 resulted in an allowed return on equity of 5.1% for the distribution network for the five years to mid-2026, up from 4.6% in the draft decision. All else being equal, we estimate this translates to an additional AUD 100 million, or 2.6 cents per security, in earnings each year compared with the draft decision. Bond yields have since weakened but we expect them to trend higher over the long term, pushing allowed returns on equity higher.

For now, an allowed return of 5.1% isn’t too bad. While allowed return on equity has fallen from 7.5% in the prior period, we expect the 30% larger regulated asset base to drive a near 10% increase in average revenue for the next five years. The draft decision for the Victorian electricity transmission network uses a 5.3% allowed return on equity, but that will likely fall to 4.9% in the final decision later this year if government bond yields remain around current levels. That represents a significant fall from 7.1% in the past five years. Revenue, however, should get a boost from lower inflation forecasts and an expanded regulated asset base.

Company Profile 

AusNet Services is a diversified energy infrastructure business, operating Victoria’s primary electricity transmission network, an electricity distribution network in eastern Victoria and a gas distribution network in western Victoria. Singapore Power owns 31% of AusNet, and China’s State Grid owns 20%.

Health and Human Services and Congressional Plans to CutDrug Prices Look Manageable by the Industry

Novartis is well positioned for steady long-term growth. Strong intellectual property supporting multi-billion-dollar products, combined with an abundance of late-pipeline products, creates a wide economic moat. While patent losses on anemia drug Exjade and cancer drug Afinitor will weigh on near-term growth, a strong portfolio of drugs along with a robust pipeline should ensure steady long-term growth.

Novartis’ drug segment is poised for long-term growth driven by new pipeline products and existing drugs. Novartis’ strategy to focus largely in areas of unmet medical need should strengthen the firm’s pricing power. Additionally, Novartis differentiates itself by its sheer number of blockbusters, including Entresto for heart failure, Cosentyx for immunology diseases and Tasigna for cancer. Also, it has generated a strong late-stage pipeline with recent launches of migraine drug Aimovig and cancer drug Kisqali. Despite the patent losses on Exjade and Afinitor (and potentially multiple sclerosis drug Gilenya), the combination of a strong pipeline of new products and a diverse, well-positioned operating platform should translate into steady growth.

Financial Strength

Using estimates from the Congressional Budget Office for the impact of HR3, we previously estimated that U.S. branded drug sales could fall 21% below our current forecasts if international price benchmarking were applied to Medicare and private plans, with up to a 40% impact if such a system were applied to all drugs (the plan would likely only apply to a basket of drugs) and if drug firms were not able to offset these prices with international price increases. Based on our prior analysis of rebates in Medicaid and the VA, the impact of domestic reference pricing could also be sizeable, as high as 20%, if applied to all of Medicare (assuming no offsets).

Upcoming congressional proposals on lowering drug pricing as well as a recent plan from the Department of Health and Human Services have put U.S. drug pricing policy back in the spotlight. Congress is reconvening and will work to pass a $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation package, and Politico reported that House Democrats plan to include Medicare drug price negotiation (along with other elements of the HR3 bill, which was originally introduced and passed in the House in 2019) in their budget reconciliation package.

Company Profile 

Novartis AG develops and manufactures healthcare products through two segments: Innovative Medicines and Sandoz. It generates the vast majority of its revenue from Innovative Medicines segment consisting global business franchises in oncology, ophthalmology, neuroscience, immunology, respiratory, cardio-metabolic, and established medicines. The firm sells its products globally, with the United States representing close to one third of total revenue.

  • Total Convenience Retail segment fuel sales volumes were 2.05bl, +3% higher over pcp (+5% on a like-for-like basis), however, earnings from fuel sales declined due to diesel margins lagging movement in crude prices

AUB Group Earnings remain resilient as ever despite uncertainty

AUB brokers derive revenue from commissions paid by insurers, based on gross written premiums. AUB owns or has equity stakes in each broking business within the network.

A key value proposition over smaller brokers is AUB’s ability to negotiate more favourable policy wording and pricing. Scale also provides the capacity to spend more on technology, which helps facilitate greater analytical and processing capabilities, and marketing to help attract and retain customers. Other services such as claims support and premium funding support the value proposition. AUB’s underwriting agencies distribute insurance products but take no underwriting risk. Underwriting agencies act on behalf of insurers to design, develop, and provide specialised insurance products and services.

The earnings outlook is positive. Further insurance price rise is expected by the analysts over the medium term as insurers seek to cover claims inflation and weak investment income. This follows a weak pricing environment due to excess global reinsurance capacity, soft economic conditions, and elevated competition.

Financial Strength:
AUB is in sound financial health. It has strong cash flow generation with a high conversion of earnings to operating cash flow and a relatively high dividend payout ratio. Gearing ratio is reasonable, at 28.5% and below the firm’s maximum 45% ratio. AUB holds AUD 90 million in cash, which when included lowers gearing further. This is excluding customer cash for premium held by AUB but payable to insurers. EBITDA interest covers of over 16 times and the nature of its businesses being relatively low-risk. As per the analysts, AUB would be using operating cash flows to fund increased positions in existing broker partners, with provision to fund small acquisitions from cash on hand.

Bulls Say:
AUB’s scale and expertise in insurance products and services leave it well placed to benefit from higher insurance pricing.
BizCover and the Kelly+ Partners partnership see AUB placed to take market share in the smaller end of the SME market.
The firm’s acquisition strategy, both new investments and increased equity stakes, would boost EPS growth.

Company Profile:
AUB Group is the second-largest general insurance broker network in Australia and New Zealand. It has an ownership in 55 brokerage businesses, which collectively write over AUD 3 billion in premiums. It also owns equity stakes in 27 underwriting agencies. AUB derives revenue from commissions (from insurers, ultimately paid for by AUB’s customers) based on gross written premium, or GWP, from agencies it owns, and a share of profits from associates and joint ventures. GWP is split between personal (6%), small to medium enterprises (68%), and corporates (26%).
