What did Dalrymple Bay Infrastructure management say?

Dalrymple Bay Infrastructure CEO and Managing Director Michael Riches, said:

Dalrymple Bay Infrastructure’s FY-25 performance reflects the continued resilience of the business and the consistency of its earnings profile. Financial performance was underpinned by the stability of DBI’s take-or-pay contracts, growth in the underlying terminal infrastructure charge and the continued delivery of revenue-enhancement and cost-efficiency initiatives. The December refinancing has improved balance sheet flexibility and reduced funding costs, while preserving substantial debt capacity to fund committed NECAP projects at a lower cost of capital. The refinancing has demonstrated the strong credit profile of DBI and that there are other low cost sources of debt capital open for DBI to access for future refinancings. This should continue to allow DBI to improve its balance sheet, lower interest costs and reduce refinancing risk. The capital allocation review has supported a material uplift in distribution guidance for TY-25/26 to 26.375cps. DBI will continue to focus on growing and managing our business to create long term value for securityholders in line with our stated objectives. Our goal is to continue to deliver sustainably growing returns to securityholders over the long term and FY-25 has been a clear demonstration of our drive to achieve that goal and our ability to execute against our plans and commitments.

What’s next for Dalrymple Bay Infrastructure?

Management is focused on delivering 3–7% distribution growth each year, supported by stable take-or-pay contracts and ongoing NECAP project investments.

The group will continue to prioritise major NECAP upgrades, organic revenue opportunities, and disciplined debt management. It is also exploring options to diversify through potential acquisitions and alternative uses for its infrastructure while maintaining a strong commitment to ESG and sustainability outcomes.
