Q1’26 First Take: A robust print with FY’26 guidance Price (13 May 26):Dh5.79
upgraded and mid-term targets maintained Price Target (Dec-27):Dh7.00
Our Take: ADNOC L&S released a robust set of Q1 results today, with EBITDA/ MENA Industrials
ACnet income coming within +-5% of the company-compiled consensus and our Anna Antonova, CFA
forecasts. A stronger performance in the Shipping business should continue to (971) 4428-1766
offset (temporary) weakness in Integrated Logistics and Services amid ongoing anna.antonova@jpmorgan.com
geopolitical disruptions, and ADNOC L&S has upgraded its FY’26 guidance to J.P. Morgan Securities plc
reflect these trends. As such, group 2026 guidance now envisages mid-high SD/
mid-high teens YoY growth in EBITDA/net income vs low-mid SD YoY growth
for both previously (BBG consensus is currently at +8%/+15% YoY, respectively).
Meanwhile, all mid-term 2026-29 guidance was reiterated, including on earnings
growth by vertical and capex spending plans. We expect the market will like the
results and look forward to more management comments around the short-mid-
term business outlook on the earnings call later today (@12pm UKT - link).
• Noteworthy Areas: 1) Integrated Logistics – Recorded expectedly softer Q1
performance, reflecting a combination of pricing and utilisation variances
across Jack-Up Barges (JUBs) and Offshore Support Vessels (OSVs),
alongside higher fleet operating expenditure. Offshore Projects remained
EBITDA-negative in Q1. The division recorded a 17% YoY EBITDA decline
