Aveng Ltd

Construction & EngineeringVerified

Aveng Limited's capital structure shows a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.63, indicating a relatively conservative leverage position compared to the industry median of 1.2. The company maintains a liquidity position with cash and equivalents of 207,397,000 AUD, but its current ratio of 0.93 suggests limited short-term liquidity cushion. The company's return on equity is -0.4721, and return on assets is -0.089, both significantly below the industry median of 0.12 and 0.08, respectively, reflecting poor profitability and capital efficiency. The Infrastructure segment, which includes McConnell Dowell, operates in Australia, New Zealand & Pacific Islands, and Southeast regions, while the Building segment, Built Environs, focuses on sport, health, and science sectors. The Mining segment, Moolmans, operates in Africa with a focus on open cast mining. Revenue concentration data is not available, but the company's operations span multiple geographies and sectors, potentially reducing exposure to single-market risks. Aveng Limited's revenue for the latest period is 2,629,939,000 AUD, with a gross profit of 82,041,000 AUD. The company reported an operating loss of 76,872,000 AUD and a net loss of 92,505,000 AUD, indicating a challenging operating environment. The outlook for the current fiscal year is negative, with no significant revenue growth expected. The risk assessment indicates low liquidity and dilution risks, with no immediate filing-based liquidity or dilution flags detected. The company's free cash flow is negative at -57,100,000 AUD, and capital expenditure is -28,061,000 AUD, suggesting ongoing investment in operations. The dilution potential is low, and no significant dilution sources were identified in the filings. Recent events include a mean recommendation of 2.00 from analysts, with one "Buy" rating and no "Strong Buy" or "Sell" ratings. The company's ESG controversies score is 100.0, indicating high ESG risk.
