Strong financial results

Graincorp recorded a jump of $35 million in underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA explained) relative to the prior corresponding period (pcp), HY20.

As a result, the agribusiness company has upgraded its FY21 guidance.

The strong performance was mainly due to the favourable turnaround in growing conditions for the 2020/21 winter crop. Production jumped by 166%.

This was boosted by solid demand for Aussie grains.

What now for Graincorp?

Graincorp benefited significantly from better conditions, enabling it to grow more crop. Weather conditions tend to be cyclical, just like the Graincorp share price.

Whilst it’s encouraging to see that demand for grains is trending upwards, I prefer to stick to businesses that are less influenced by external forces.
