2026 Third Quarter Trading Update

ANZ today announced¹ 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% ² 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.²

ANZ’s Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Ratio at 30 June 2026 was 12.51%, up 12 bps from 31 March 2026.

CEO commentary

ANZ Chief Executive Officer Nuno Matos said: “As we release our third quarter update, we remain on track to meet our Return on Tangible Equity and Cost-to-Income targets. In the quarter, we continued to improve productivity, margins and business volumes, including accelerating growth in business banking and returning home lending to system growth.

“Our five immediate priorities are progressing well. Our new leadership team is driving our cultural reset. We are continuing to progress the integration of Suncorp Bank and delivery of the ANZ single customer front-end, and are on track to meet our FY26 year-end completion targets of 57% and 45% respectively. Our work to reduce duplication and simplify the bank is on track and we remain committed to our full year cost guidance of 5% down year on year. We remain focused on improving non-financial risk management and are on track to deliver the activities in our Root Cause Remediation Plan.

“We continue to watch the external environment closely across our network. Our balance sheet and capital position remain strong, and we are staying close to our customers should they need support.

“Beyond our immediate priorities, we are investing now in customer experience, propositions, channel uplift and transaction banking. This will position us well for the second phase of our strategy beyond 2027, to accelerate growth and outperform the market,” Mr Matos concluded.

^{1 Unless otherwise stated (i) 3Q26 financial results are presented on a cash profit basis, and (ii) quarterly performance is compared with 1H26 quarterly average.}

^{2 3Q26 cash profit was impacted by a NZD125 million pre-tax expense provision in the quarter relating to the New Zealand class action. Using the 30 June 2026 exchange rate, this equates to AUD103 million pre-tax (AUD74 million post-tax). Excluding this provision, 3Q26 vs 1H26 quarterly average cash profit increased by 5% to $1.98 billion and operating expenses reduced by 3%. The provision followed the 5 May 2026 High Court ruling in relation to claims against ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited (ANZ NZ) under the Credit Contracts and Consumer Finance Act 2003, and reflects the Group’s assessment of its maximum potential liability for costs of borrowing following the High Court Judgment. ANZ has appealed the High Court Decision. See media release of 6 May 2026: https://www.anz.com.au/newsroom/new-zealand/2026/05/anz-new-zealand-class-action-decision/}
