Origin Energy (ORG) $10.45

ORG –6.7%. Moved lower on a production downgrade. The headline figures were good with gas sales up driven by LNG prices, but overall result was tainted by lower short term domestic volumes.

Origin Energy Ltd (ORG) $10.80

ORG continues to forge towards new all-time highs, now only 2.4% away. ORG is forecast to yield more than 5% over the coming 12-months, but we foresee a flatter dividend outlook moving forward.

Origin Energy Ltd (ORG) $10..05

RG has advanced ~18% this year, rewarding investors with capital gain and a fully franked yield well above 5%. However, ORG has struggled since missing expectations with its FY24 result in August, including forward guidance, which was weaker than hoped. The current dividend is healthy, but we expect a flatter dividend outlook from here, as opposed to the growth we expect by AGL over the coming years.

Origin Energy Ltd (ORG) $10.18

ORG has advanced over 20% this year, rewarding investors with capital gain (on paper) and a fully franked yield well in excess of 5%. However, ORG has struggled since missing expectations with its FY24 result in August, and its forward guidance was weaker than anticipated. While the dividend is healthy, we expect a flatter dividend outlook moving forward, not the growth largely expected by the market.

Origin Energy (ORG) $10.19

ORG is up +20% in 2024, slightly behind AGL at this stage. The company's recent results weren't great, which saw the stock pullback around 14%. Underwhelming FY25 guidance garnered the most attention, with the pullback amplified by the stock's strong advance over recent years.

Origin Energy Ltd (ORG) $9.60

ORG -9.4%: FY24 results were labelled a miss. Analysts compared the $436 million increase in core profit to $1.18 billion, unfavourably compared to AGL’s better-than-expected profit and outlook just 24 hours earlier

Origin Energy Ltd (ORG) $10.72

We believe the market is mispricing two important value drivers for ORG: its peaking generation portfolio and the value of Octopus Energy. We can see $12 on the upside from the quality Australian utility, but it's not enticing from a risk/reward perspective as it approaches $11. ORG is forecast to yield 4.7% over the next 12-months, although this will likely slip slightly over the coming years.

Origin Energy (ORG) $9.95

In late April, ORG reported their March quarter operations up with realised prices in line with expectations; however, sales revenue was marginally lower due to lower domestic gas sales volumes. The stock has taken the result in its stride and is making multi-year highs this week.

Origin Energy (ORG) $8.03

The 18-month journey by Brookfield LP and EIG to acquire ORG finally appears to be over for now, with 69% of Origin’s shareholders voting in favour of the $9.39 takeover deal, but unfortunately, for these shareholders in the short-term, this failed to reach the 75% approval threshold, and subsequently, the scheme will not proceed.

Origin Energy (ORG) $9.21

ORG +5.5%: the ACCC showed their softer side today, approving the Brookfield deal to acquire Origin Energy despite some vertical integration concerns. Brookfield already manages gas & electricity distributor AusNet, which raised the ACCC eyebrows given the similarities in Origin’s services.
