FY2026 profit jumps 857 percent

BlueScope announced its FY2026 results on August 17, 2026. According to Kapitales Research, underlying EBIT reached AUD 1.273 billion and net profit after tax totaled AUD 802 million, up 857 percent from FY2025.

The earnings mix matters. North American underlying EBIT rose 101 percent to AUD 1.034 billion, while Asia contributed AUD 177 million, up 28 percent year over year. The comparison shows how strongly BlueScope's FY2026 result depended on overseas operations.

Guidance sets the next test

Management expects first-half FY2027 underlying EBIT of AUD 860 million to AUD 960 million, according to Kapitales Research. The range covers the six months ending December 31, 2026, and leaves steel spreads, foreign exchange and demand as the key earnings variables.

Australia was the weaker counterweight in FY2026. Underlying EBIT fell 28 percent to AUD 188 million, with cheap Chinese steel exports and elevated energy costs weighing on the domestic business, as The Bull reported on September 8, 2026.
