Shipbuilder Austal rides military spending wave, shares defy market slump

U.S. President Donald Trump's policies that have rattled stocks around the world are benefiting Australian shipbuilder Austal, analysts said on Wednesday. Shares of the company, which supplies defence and commercial vessels to the Australian and U.S. navies among other clients, surged 35% in the three months ending March, clocking their best quarterly gains in nearly two years since June 2023. The surge in Austal's shares comes amid Trump's call asking Australia and other U.S. security allies to increase defence spending.

US Navy shipbuilder Austal USA agrees to pay $24 million to settle accounting fraud probe

Austal USA, an Alabama-based shipbuilder that makes vessels for the U.S. Navy, has admitted wrongdoing and agreed to pay a $24 million fine to settle an accounting fraud investigation, the U.S. Department of Justice announced Tuesday. From 2013 through July 2016, Austal USA conspired to mislead shareholders and investors about the company's financial condition, the department said. Austal USA “engaged in a years-long scheme to illegally inflate its profits on ships the company was building for the U.S. Navy, reporting false financial results to investors, lenders, and its auditors,” Nicole M. Argentieri, principal deputy assistant attorney general and head of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, said in a statement.
