Transurban agreed to buy Canada Pension Plan Investment Board's stakes in the M7, NorthConnex and WestConnex for AUD 4.5 billion, subject to regulatory clearance. It also reached commercial close on Tennessee's I-24 southeast choice lanes.
Core Australian roads generate defensive revenue that grows with traffic volumes and toll price increases, which are at a minimum pegged to inflation. Solid revenue growth and a high fixed-cost base translate to strong cash flow and distribution growth.
Building and acquiring new roads can destroy equity value as a result of overbidding and overly optimistic traffic forecasts.
