Published on 09/28/2026 at 12:14 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSAPA Group stock (ISIN AU000000APA1) was last at AUD 10.77 on the ASX on September 28, 2026, up 1.32 percent from AUD 10.63. The move follows a fiscal 2026 performance in which underlying EBITDA rose 8.30 percent to AUD 2.183 billion, while profit after tax increased 81.40 percent to AUD 234 million, according to The Globe and Mail.
Fiscal 2026 brings stronger cash flow
APA Group reported fiscal 2026 revenue of AUD 3.003 billion for the year ended June 30, 2026, a decline of 6.30 percent. The more informative operating measure moved higher: segment revenue excluding pass-through increased 3.20 percent to AUD 2.803 billion.
Free cash flow also rose 3.20 percent to AUD 1.118 billion, while total distributions reached 58.0 cents per security. Earnings per security increased to 17.8 cents from 9.9 cents in the prior year, according to The Globe and Mail. That combination points to operating resilience even as headline revenue contracted.
FY2027 guidance sets the next test
For fiscal 2027, APA Group guides to underlying EBITDA of AUD 2.260 billion to AUD 2.340 billion, according to Fool Australia. The midpoint of AUD 2.300 billion would be 5.36 percent above fiscal 2026 EBITDA, making execution against the range more important than the revenue decline alone.
Stock sits near its yearly high
At AUD 10.77, the security was 2.97 percent below its 52-week high of AUD 11.10 and above its 52-week low of AUD 8.45. Trading volume reached 1,976,646 securities on September 28, 2026, while APA Group had a market capitalization of AUD 14.3 billion.
For investors, the central comparison is clear: cash generation and underlying earnings are expanding faster than reported revenue. The stock therefore enters the next reporting cycle with fiscal 2027 guidance and capital discipline as the measurable checkpoints.
