Gresham Mining & Infrastructure Services Quarterly
Chris Branston
We are pleased to present Edition 19 of the Gresham Mining & Infrastructure Services Quarterly(GMISQ). This quarter we have expanded our coverage to include infrastructure services,reflecting the growth of that market and increasing diversification of many service providers.
After a strong finish to 2016, the Gresham Mining & Infrastructure Services Index1 (GMISI) took arelative breather in the first quarter of 2017, increasing by 4%, in line with the All Ordinaries. Thistrend has continued into the second quarter, with the GMISI performance flat during April.
The index performance was driven by relatively flat share prices for the four largest constituents.However, looking down the list showed an interesting trend with 9 of the next 15 largestcompanies still recording double digit share price growth. On the other hand, small caps continueto struggle, evidenced by 15 of the 21 sub-$100m market cap companies seeing their share pricesfall during the quarter.
The first half reporting season was mixed, with some companies achieving solid top line growthbut the majority still recording a decrease in revenue. The outlook is more positive, with analystsforecasting a return to growth across the sector over the FY17-19 period. This is reflected inobserved valuation multiples, which continue to be above the long term average.
The major deals during the quarter included Downer’s hostile takeover bid for Spotless, VINCI’sproposed acquisition of Seymour Whyte, and Acciona’s purchase of Geotech. These transactionscap a period of consolidation for the sector – over the last three years, eight of the GMISIconstituents have been taken over.
In our Quarterly Focus we review the increasing importance of non-resources infrastructure to thegroup. With the reduction in mining construction capex and a host of major transport projectsplanned and underway, a number of engineering and construction companies are successfullyadapting to the changing market. In many cases, this has been supported by strategic acquisitionsthat have provided additional expertise and new market entry points.

1H FY17 Results Wrap
The 1H FY17 results were mixed, with some companies such as Lycopodium, SRG, Mineral Resources, Pacific Energy andNRW reporting good organic revenue growth, while more than half still saw sales go backwards.
The fact that nearly half of the GMISI constituents recorded meaningful share price falls on the day of announcementsuggests there was a reasonable proportion of negative surprises.
