Investor presentation summary
4 May, 2026Market and operational environment
Global refiner margins remain strong due to ongoing Middle East conflict, with a net loss of 10mbd crude volumes impacting supply chains and supporting higher margins, especially in Asia where mitigation efforts are underway.
Domestic refining and integrated supply chains have proven critical for fuel availability and resilience during international disruptions, with essential fuel demand, particularly diesel, remaining robust.
Financial and strategic highlights
Lytton Refiner Margin reached US$25.45/bbl in 1Q26, expected to stay strong into Q2, supported by the Fuel Security Services Payment (FSSP) which reduces downside risk and may be extended to 2030.
Convenience retail saw 3.2% network shop sales growth and 3.5% retail fuel volume growth in 1Q26, with U-GO contributing 75% of volume growth.
The proposed acquisition of EG Australia is expected to deliver $65-80m in cost synergies and improve business mix, with high single-digit EPS accretion and double-digit free cash flow per share accretion.
Strategic positioning and outlook
Integrated supply chain, domestic refining, and national distribution network position the business to support Australia’s fuel resilience and security.
Strategic clarity includes disciplined M&A, focus on efficient supply chain, and transition to lower-carbon solutions, with over $4.0b returned to shareholders since 2015.
Scenario analysis supports a robust fuel outlook into the 2030s, with continued investment in infrastructure and mobility solutions.
