While underlying earnings (not including significant items) went backwards over the year, EBITDA came in ahead of market expectations. The result follows more than $900m in write-downs of its publishing assets which held back its FY16 result. While Domain has been its star performer for some time, its print business has been coming under pressure due to a slide in advertising dollars and a systemic change in the way Australians consume their news. FXJ confirmed it plans to spin-off its best performing asset, Domain and for trading in the real estate classifieds business to begin in mid to late November. The group intends to retain 60% of Domain with the remaining 40% to be distributed to FXJ shareholders. The split is still conditional on shareholder and regulatory approvals (including ASIC, ASX and ATO). Investors can expect the scheme booklet (which outlines all details of the separation) in late September 2017.

FY20 guidance is bleak, given the housing construction downturn has as yet no end in sight and increased infrastructure construction is not sufficient to offset. The suspension of the dividend also came as no shock, but an intent to acquire and build out an integrated, infrastructure-oriented business model carries risk and reduces dividend prospects near-term. APT - AFTERPAY TOUCH BEAT 0 0 2/0/0 30.43 33.43 2 Afterpay Touch's FY19 net loss was slightly less than Morgans expected. The results suggest continuing strong sales momentum and stable margins across the business. Morgans downgrades FY20-21 earnings estimates, factoring in higher investment expenditure associated with offshore expansion. Traction in the US is strong but the key for Ord Minnett in the FY19 result were the initial customer acquisitions in the UK, which were well above expectations. Average merchant fees were slightly ahead of expectations, particularly in the US. AOG - AVEO IN LINE 0 1 0/2/0 2.15 2.15 2 Aveo Group's FY19 net profit was in line with recently downgraded guidance.

  • Engineers Australia Sydney Division Water Engineering Panel
    Engineers Australia Sydney Division Water Engineering Panel REAL-TIME QUANTITATIVE RAINFALL FORECASTING WHERE ARE WE AND WHERE ARE WE HEADING Abstract: Weather prediction and specifically forecasting rainfall in the near term has made significant strides in the last decade. This has largely been due to advances in science and computer power, with several agencies commanding supercomputers in the top 50 in the world. However, rainfall still remains one of the most difficult parameters to forecast even out to 12 hours. The intrinsic problems with forecasting rainfall over other such parameters such as temperature and winds, is its often very chaotic nature both temporally and geographically. Even with global supercomputers modelling at greater resolutions, few are capable of providing the pinpoint accuracy often required by rainfall sensitive industries and projects. The aim of this talk is to provide an industry-wide overview on current science and forecasting techniques with regard to rainfall, with a special focus on the very latest techniques for trying to improve and correct forecast data provided by the global computer models. The example of the Chatswood Integrated Flood Control and Stormwater Reuse Scheme shall be used as a case study of how such techniques may be applied to vastly enhance rainfall forecasting accuracy. In addition, the talk will touch on how these forecast techniques can be used across the industry as a whole, as well as a quick look into expected future developments. Speaker Bio: Martin Palmer spent nine years in the British Royal Navy as a Warfare Officer, specialising as a Meteorologist, Oceanographer and Hydrographic Surveyor.
