Operations: Elders generates revenue through its Branch Network (A$2.70 billion), Wholesale Products (A$362.96 million), and Feed and Processing Services (A$142.30 million).
Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 46.1%
Elders Limited’s recent earnings report shows a strong performance with net income rising to A$33.62 million, up from A$11.59 million the previous year. The stock is currently trading at A$7.57, significantly below its estimated fair value of A$14.04, indicating it may be undervalued based on cash flows. Despite past shareholder dilution and a modest forecasted return on equity of 10.8%, Elders’ revenue and earnings growth projections outpace the broader Australian market expectations.

Energy One Limited’s recent earnings report highlights robust financial performance, with net income rising to A$5.89 million from A$1.44 million the previous year. The stock trades at A$14.10, 17.5% below its estimated fair value of A$17.09, suggesting it is undervalued based on cash flows despite not being significantly below fair value criteria. Earnings are forecasted to grow significantly faster than the market, although revenue growth is expected to be more moderate at 14.6% annually.
Overview: NRW Holdings Limited, with a market cap of A$1.74 billion, offers diversified contract services to the resources and infrastructure sectors in Australia through its subsidiaries.
Operations: The company’s revenue is derived from its key segments, with MET generating A$932.02 million, Civil contributing A$823.72 million, and Mining accounting for A$1.54 billion.
Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 31.3%
NRW Holdings is trading at A$3.81, significantly below its estimated fair value of A$5.55, indicating undervaluation based on cash flows. Despite a decline in net income to A$27.67 million from A$105.1 million last year, earnings are projected to grow at 24.6% annually, outpacing the market average of 10.7%. However, profit margins have decreased and the dividend yield of 4.33% is not well covered by earnings, which may affect sustainability.
