BHP Group is under Algo Engine buy conditions and is a current holding in our ASX 100 model portfolio.

Declining port stocks and concerns over Brazil supply support a positive outlook for iron ore prices. A combination of strong iron ore prices and the recovery in the energy complex should continue to support the BHP share price.

Buy BHP at $39.00

BHP Group is under Algo Engine buy conditions following a switch in May 2019.

Strong cash flow should allow BHP to lift its dividend payout ratio or consider a new off-market buyback.

BHP goes ex-div $0.80 on the 7th March.

BHP outlined earlier this week its outlook for the Petroleum business, which includes an increase in capital spending and plans to double production by 2025.

FY21 revenue remains flat, EBIT the same as FY20 at $19bn, which supports DPS of $1.55 per share placing the stock on a forward yield of 5%.

The market is negative on the outlook for Iron Ore prices, with extra supply hitting the market in 2021, however, if spot prices stay where they are analysts will have to upgrade the earnings outlook. 10 to 20% upgrade in earnings will support BHP trading back over $40 per share.

The company reported Q1 production that was below analyst forecasts. The impact was most significant in copper where production was down 9%. Iron production was down 2% and thermal coal was also lower.

Despite the soft quarter, BHP reiterated its full-year production guidance.

Based on FY20 revenue of $43bn, EBITDA $25bn, net income $11bn, we have BHP trading 15x forward earnings and 4.5% yield.

Accumulate BHP within the $30 – $34.50 price range.

The company announced its FY19 earnings, which were in line with consensus expectations. Operating costs are slightly elevated but high iron ore prices will offset this in FY20.

FY19 reported EBITDA US$23.2bn and underlying attributable profit of $9.1bn.  The market was disappointed that no buyback was announced but BHP did declare a final div of US$0.78 per share.

Total dividends for the year were US$1.33 per share, based on 74% payout ratio.

FY20 revenue is forecast to be $48bn, EBIT $19bn, net profit $11.5bn, which will place the stock on a 10x PE multiple and a forward yield of 6.5%.

We see value support for BHP & RIO near the current price range.

BHP Group is trading near fair value and investors should consider selling $42.18 Euro call options into Sept, to add to the cash flow returns.

The highlight of the June quarter production update was petroleum volumes outpacing estimates. Iron ore and copper were in line, while coal disappointed.

FY20 revenue is forecast to be $46bn and net profit $12bn, supporting a 5.5% yield.

The surging iron ore prices creates the potential for BHP to announce a special dividend when it reports its full year result next month.

BHP Group is now under Algo Engine buy conditions following the retracement from $40 in April, back to $36 in today’s session.

Iron Ore prices remain elevated at US$93 per tone and the energy complex  looks well supported from global demand and geopolitical issues with Iran.

Investors seeking income should consider adding a BHP Sept call option and stripping out the dividend, plus the call option premium.

BHP goes ex-div $0.89 on the 6th of September.
