Stock Track12-18

AUSTAL LTD (ASB.AU) saw its stock price surge by 5.05% during the intraday session on Thursday, reflecting strong investor optimism following a major contract announcement.

The shipbuilder was awarded a A$1.029 billion (approximately $680 million) contract by the Australian government to design and build 18 landing craft medium vessels at its Henderson shipyard in Western Australia. This significant contract is expected to bolster the company's revenue and long-term growth prospects in the defense sector.

The announcement has been well-received by the market, as large defense contracts often provide stability and visibility for companies like Austal. The project is scheduled to commence in 2026, with deliveries expected to continue until 2032.
