Full Summary

Telstra Group Ltd had a strong year in FY25, delivering growth across key financial metrics. The company's reported results saw increases in EBITDA, Net Profit After Tax, Earnings Per Share and Return on Invested Capital. This performance reflected momentum across the business, strong cost control and disciplined capital management. On the back of earnings growth, the Board resolved to pay a fully franked final dividend of 9.5 cents per share, bringing total dividends for the year to 19 cents per share, representing a 5.6% increase on the prior year. Telstra also completed a $750 million on-market buyback during the year and announced an additional $1 billion buyback, enabled by the growth in earnings and the strength of the company's balance sheet. Telstra continued to invest in delivering Australia's best mobile network and connecting people internationally, with $12.4 billion invested in mobiles over the seven years to the end of FY25, including $4.7 billion in regional areas. The company also progressed its Intercity Fibre Network build and increased the capacity of its subsea cable network to meet growing customer demand.

Guidance

Telstra does not provide financial guidance beyond the current financial year. The company's financial targets and growth ambitions across its portfolio (including the targets to FY30 in connection with the Connected Future 30 strategy) are not guidance and there are greater risks and uncertainties in connection with these targets and ambitions.

Outlook

Telstra is moving into the next phase of its journey with a new five-year strategy - Connected Future 30. This new strategy will see the company double down on connectivity and radically innovate in the core of its business, with the overarching ambition to be the number one choice for connectivity in Australia. Telstra will push the boundaries of its network leadership and make it simple for customers to get the connectivity they need in a changing environment.
