2026 Third Quarter Trading Update

ANZ today announced an unaudited Statutory Profit for the quarter ended 30 June 2026 (3Q26) of $1.95 billion and a Cash Profit of $1.90 billion.

Cash Profit was up 1% on the quarterly average of the half year ended 31 March 2026 (1H26 qtr avg). Cash Return on Tangible Equity (RoTE) was broadly flat.

Cash Profit and RoTE were impacted by a NZD125 million expense provision (pre-tax) in 3Q26 following the 5 May 2026 New Zealand class action ruling. ANZ has appealed the decision. ANZ’s Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Ratio at 30 June 2026 was 12.51%, up 12 bps from 31 March 2026.
