ANZ Group is trading 4.53% up at A$38.04 after its August 13, 2026 third-quarter update reported A$1.90 billion in cash profit, up 1% from the first-half quarterly average.

  • Net interest margin improved to 1.54%, while lending and deposits grew and quarterly costs declined.
  • Weaker mortgage applications and a NZD125 million class-action provision tempered the result; Reuters attributed the increase to ANZ’s 3% cost decline, while broader markets were modestly firmer.
