Boom Logistics (ASX:BOL) has emerged as a favoured small-cap industrial among Australian fund managers backing the capital expenditure cycle. In August 2026, Collins St Asset Management reported a strong FY26 result with underlying profit up close to 40%, describing it as yet another earnings upgrade since it first invested, alongside a larger on-market buyback. Centennial Asset Management and Blue Boat Capital have both recently added the crane operator, citing constrained equipment supply, robust demand and a valuation that still reflects its cyclical past. Boom Logistics operates in the Industrials sector within the Trading Companies and Distributors industry, and Thesis Tracker has recorded 10 comments from 3 fund managers. Headquartered in Southbank and founded in 2000, Boom provides cranes, travel towers, access equipment and labour hire through its Lifting Solutions and Labour Hire divisions.
Company figures as of 15 Oct 2026. For information only.
Fund managers including Collins St Asset Management, Centennial Asset Management and Blue Boat Capital have invested in Boom Logistics Limited (ASX:BOL).
Managers highlight a run of consecutive earnings upgrades, with earnings per share up around 50% since FY25, together with a reinstated dividend and an expanded buyback of roughly 10% of shares. Collins St argues the stock remains materially undervalued on around seven times earnings, while Blue Boat Capital sees structurally tight capacity in heavy lifting, rising utilisation, improving pricing power and longer-duration contracts supporting returns. Centennial views Boom as a small-cap way to play the broader capex theme.
Fund managers acknowledge Boom operates in a capital-intensive, operationally demanding and historically cyclical industry, which is why the market tends to price it for mean reversion. The bull case depends on infrastructure, mining services and energy transition demand staying strong and on supply remaining constrained; a downturn in project activity or renewed industry capacity could pressure utilisation, pricing and the sustainability of recent earnings upgrades.
