AUB Group stock reports FY26 profit growth as margins expand
Published on 10/04/2026 at 20:39 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
AUB Group (ISIN AU000000AUB9) was last at AUD 26.76 on the ASX on October 2, 2026, after a 2.1 percent daily gain. The company enters the new reporting cycle with FY26 underlying net profit after tax up 12.2 percent to AUD 224.6 million, according to Kapitales Research on September 18, 2026.
FY26 margin expansion leads
The FY26 result combined growth with a wider operating spread. AUB Group's underlying revenue reached AUD 1.597 billion, while EBIT increased to AUD 576.5 million and the group EBIT margin expanded by 140 basis points to 36.1 percent, Kapitales Research reported.
That margin figure matters because the earnings mix is not uniform. The International division increased underlying profit before tax by 19.6 percent to AUD 124.5 million, while Australian Broking revenue rose 6.0 percent to AUD 647.8 million. The combination gives the group more than one operating driver, but it also raises the importance of integration execution across its international platform.
FY27 guidance sets the test
Management's next benchmark is underlying NPAT of AUD 245 million to AUD 265 million for FY27. In the earnings call published by Yahoo Finance on September 17, 2026, the midpoint of AUD 255 million was described as 13.5 percent growth over FY26, with the full guidance range representing 9.1 percent to 18 percent growth.
The statutory picture is less smooth. Simply Wall St reported FY26 earnings per share of AUD 0.79, down from AUD 1.55 in FY25, and net income of AUD 96.0 million, down 47 percent, while revenue increased 5.7 percent to AUD 1.24 billion. For investors, the gap between statutory earnings and underlying NPAT makes delivery against the FY27 range the central operating checkpoint.
Stock remains below yearly high
AUB Group's AUD 26.76 price on October 2, 2026, stood 33.56 percent below its 52-week high of AUD 40.28 and above its 52-week low of AUD 22.08. The company's market capitalization was AUD 3.5 billion on the same date.
The capital-return signal is also dated. AUB Group declared a fully franked final dividend of AUD 0.71 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2026, with payment scheduled for October 9, 2026, according to Simply Wall St.
