Company Report

Cost Containment and Growing Revenue Stream Bode Well for Transurban's Long-Term Margins

Transurban is a major toll road investor with concessions to operate 14 Australian and three North American motorways. Concessions grant the right to operate the roads and collect tolls for predetermined amounts of time. The core Australian roads are integral parts of the motorway networks in Australia's three largest cities: Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane. The roads benefit from strong competitive advantages, and the assets generate attractive returns on initial investment, warranting a wide economic moat rating.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Core Australian roads generate defensive revenue that grows with traffic volumes and toll price increases, which are at a minimum pegged to inflation. Solid revenue growth and a high fixed-cost base translate to strong cash flow and distribution growth.

Bears

Building and acquiring new roads can destroy equity value as a result of overbidding and overly optimistic traffic forecasts.
