â–¼(-13.52% Downside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:10/28/26
AU:AOV scores 61 primarily due to improving but still volatile financial performance (recovery in 2026, positive free cash flow, but a recent loss year and softer cash-flow trend). Technical indicators are the biggest drag given clear downtrends and bearish momentum. Valuation is a key offset with a low P/E and high yield, while the earnings call supports a cautiously positive outlook (modest growth guidance and strong cash conversion) tempered by ANZ headwinds, cost pressures, and working-capital/inventory concerns.
Positive Factors
Revenue diversification and offshore expansion
The growing offshore contribution reduces reliance on Australian demand and broadens Amotiv’s earnings base. Expansion across the U.S., Europe and other markets also creates a natural foreign-exchange hedge, supports new customer opportunities, and can improve resilience against localized industry weakness over coming periods.
Negative Factors
ANZ demand weakness and 4WD margin pressure
Weak Australian vehicle demand is affecting a major business area and has already reduced 4WD profitability. Continued softness, particularly in pickups, could limit volume growth and delay the benefit of pricing actions, leaving earnings exposed until new offshore programs and other channels scale further.

Amotiv Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Aug 10, 2026
(Q4-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Feb 16, 2027
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call presents a constructive operational and financial story: management delivered FY'26 guidance, achieved strong cash conversion, progressed offshore expansion and strategic investments (notably VAFI and Unified), returned material cash to shareholders, and improved ROCE. However, there are clear headwinds in ANZ end markets—particularly 4‑wheel drive cyclical weakness, margin pressure from input costs (steel and inflation), inventory/working-capital elevation and a FY'26 impairment/divestment charge. Management’s actions (pricing, offshoring, Unified efficiency and capital recycling) and offshore growth provide confidence, while near-term domestic volatility and notable one-off charges temper upside.Positive Updates
Met FY'26 Underlying EBITA Guidance
Underlying EBITA delivered $195.1m, essentially meeting the FY'26 guidance (~$195m) and representing ~1.6% underlying EBITDA growth versus the prior year.
Negative Updates
4‑Wheel Drive Profitability Compression
4‑wheel drive underlying EBITDA fell to $52.8m, down 10.9% year-on-year, with margin declining 2.4 percentage points to 14.3%; weakness driven by subdued ANZ pickup volumes and timing of pricing (many pricing benefits realized only in H2).

Company Guidance
Management guided to modest FY‑27 revenue and underlying EBITDA growth (on a like‑for‑like basis after the ECB divestment), driven by growing offshore revenue, pricing actions and Amotiv Unified benefits that offset subdued ANZ conditions; the guidance assumes prevailing economic/trading conditions with no material adverse events and includes Unified net benefits and further pricing (skewed to H2). Key numeric anchors: FY‑26 cash conversion remained very strong at ~93.1% and is expected to be maintained; leverage sits at 1.85x (within the 1.5–2.25x target range); ROCE improved 30 bps to 13.4% against a 15% medium‑term target; U.S. dollar earnings now represent ~17% of post‑tax earnings before amortization and combined non‑ANZ earnings ~32% (vs 25% PCP); first‑half FY‑27 foreign‑exchange exposure is ~100% hedged to USD; 4‑wheel‑drive pricing annualizes with further out‑of‑cycle pricing in H1 and offshore programs (Navara Q1 FY‑27, European OEM supply from late CY‑27 implying ~30k–60k incremental units p.a. by FY‑28, ~7–14% uplift); LPE margins are expected to moderate slightly (no FY‑26 one‑off ~A$2m benefit and continued U.S. investment); and PTU’s Infinitev is on track to breakeven on a run‑rate basis by end FY‑27.Amotiv Financial Statement Overview
