Dividend growth supports the income case
The dividend increase was larger than the 6.00 percent rise in fiscal 2026 net profit to AUD 489.90 million, also reported by Fool Australia. The payout therefore grew faster than earnings in the reported year, giving the distribution story a clearer numerical profile than the share-price chart alone.
