CSL called 2026 a “transition year”, reporting revenue of $15.8 billion (currency‑adjusted -1%) and an adjusted NPAT‑A of $3.1 billion, while a statutory loss of $2.6 billion was caused by $6.0 billion of restructuring and impairments. Investors focused on a strong operating cash flow of $3.5 billion, a new $1.1 billion AUD share buyback program and the outlook for around 5% adjusted NPAT growth in 2027 with largely stable revenue.
