Fletcher Building (NZSE:FBU) has drawn fresh attention after reporting full year 2026 results, with sales of NZ$5,994 million, net income of NZ$228 million and basic earnings per share from continuing operations of NZ$0.185. See our latest analysis for Fletcher Building. Fletcher Building's recent earnings turnaround and reduced net debt appear to be feeding into renewed interest in the stock. A 90 day share price return of 30.39% and a 1 year total shareholder return of 32.12% suggest...

Spark New Zealand stock went into this result on a tear, up around 17% over the past month and about 9% over three months, with investors clearly re‑rating the story. The company then printed a full year net profit margin of 12.3% and a trailing P/E of 8.4x, which sits well below global telecom peers. That gap between a richer share price and still low multiple is the real headline. Short term traders are reacting to the bounce, while long term holders are weighing whether the profit margin...

It's been a good week for EBOS Group Limited ( NZSE:EBO ) shareholders, because the company has just released its...

Auckland International Airport stock closed at NZ$8.64 on Friday, with the past week slightly in the red and the past quarter modestly ahead. Short term traders saw a tired chart. Long term holders were watching something else entirely. The headline from these results is not passenger growth or revenue. It is the pressure on profitability. Net profit margin over the last year sat at 32.3%, well below the 44.1% level a year earlier, at the same time as the stock trades on a trailing P/E of...

Skellerup Holdings came into this result with the stock already on a strong run, up about 23% over three months and closing at NZ$7.40 on 21 August. The market had been treating it as a steady industrial compounder. The FY26 numbers now on the table show something punchier. Normalized net profit after tax reached NZ$64.2m with record operating cash flow of NZ$83.6m and a dividend of NZ$0.30 per share, fully backed by earnings. The key contrast today is between a solid rerating and a balance...

SkyCity Entertainment Group walked into this earnings release with the stock under pressure, down over the past week and month despite a stronger three month run. The market has been treating it as a highly valued recovery story, with a trailing P/E of 36.6x that sits well above peers, yet the share price closed at just NZ$0.605 on 21 August. The headline from these results is profit quality. Underlying EBITDA landed within guidance at NZ$181.6m, but a stack of accounting hits pulled reported...

Seeka’s stock closed at NZ$5.19 today, leaving the market valuing the company on a P/E of only 7x. This comes after a year of sharply higher profitability. The headline from these earnings is the profit story. Net profit margin over the last 12 months sits at 7.3% compared with 2.1% a year earlier, and earnings growth over that period is very large versus the longer run trend. So you have a fruit producer reporting far stronger margins while the share price still trades on a compressed...

Vector (NZSE:VCT) is back in focus after reporting full year 2026 earnings on 18 August. The company highlighted a 55% rise in net profit, supported by electricity network performance and higher capital investment. See our latest analysis for Vector. Despite the strong full year 2026 result, Vector’s recent share price has been softer, with the stock around NZ$4.90 and the 90 day share price return down 2.58%. Even so, the 1 year total shareholder return of 16.68% and 5 year total shareholder...

Fletcher Building stock closed at NZ$3.97 today after the market weighed a long awaited return to profitability against a still cautious outlook. Short term traders see a building products group that has swung back to a positive net profit after tax of NZ$228m and posted earnings per share of NZ$0.212. Longer term holders are more focused on what that profit means for a turnaround that has been years in the making. The real headline is simple: the loss making chapter has closed and the next...

Investors who take an interest in Gentrack Group Limited ( NZSE:GTK ) should definitely note that the MD, CEO...

EBOS Group stock closed at NZ$23.55 today after investors digested a full year that was more about pressure than celebration. The headline is a squeeze. Underlying EBITDA of A$614m and net profit after tax of A$250m came through while net profit margin over the trailing period stayed at about 1.7%, slightly thinner than a year ago. The market has already experienced a strong 90 day run in the share price. The key issue now is how much long term value EBOS Group can derive from its new A$360m...

EBOS Group earnings put fresh focus on the stock EBOS Group (NZSE:EBO) has drawn fresh attention after releasing full year 2026 results today, reporting A$13,486.68m in sales and A$225.19m in net income from continuing operations. See our latest analysis for EBOS Group. The earnings release appears to have reset sentiment around EBOS Group, with the share price at NZ$23.55 after a 16.01% 90 day share price return. However, the 1 year total shareholder return has declined 38.77%, suggesting...

Ryman Healthcare (NZSE:RYM) is back in focus after director James Miller signalled his intention to step down to prioritise his new role as Chair of the Financial Markets Authority. See our latest analysis for Ryman Healthcare. The recent reshuffle on Ryman Healthcare’s board comes at a time when the share price is around NZ$2.10, with short term share price returns mixed and longer term total shareholder returns still showing a pronounced decline over three and five years. This pattern...

Mercury NZ went into the result priced as a premium utility, trading on a P/E of 30.2x and slipping slightly over the past three months. The earnings story now in front of you is all about scale and margins. The stock closed at NZ$6.81 on the day of the release, while the company reported NZ$1,068m in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation and fair value, and a 10% net profit margin over the past year. For a gentailer, that combination is the real headline and it is what...

Last week, you might have seen that Freightways Group Limited ( NZSE:FRW ) released its yearly result to the market...

Vector stock went into today treading water, with the 30 day return slightly down and the 90 day performance also softer. The market now has to square that muted tone with a headline year in which net profit from continuing operations reached NZ$240.2m and the trailing P/E multiple sat at 20.5x. The real story is margin. Net profit margin on a trailing basis sat at 20.1% compared with 14% a year earlier, which is a sharp reset for a regulated utility and a key test of whether today’s reaction...

Meridian Energy Limited recently reported that its total generation volumes for July 2026 were 1,371 GWh, compared with 1,157 GWh in July 2025, highlighting a solid uplift in operational output. Separately, the company has appointed experienced energy executive Fraser Whineray as a Non-Executive Director, adding deep sector and governance expertise to Meridian’s board ahead of his expected formal election at the upcoming Annual Shareholders’ Meeting. We will now examine how July’s higher...

a2 Milk stock closed at NZ$8.54 after the market absorbed a set of earnings that looked solid on paper yet still demand a closer look. The immediate price action reflects a company that has already enjoyed a 24.7% gain over the past three months, so expectations were not low coming into this result. The headline this time is not revenue growth or special dividends. It is the squeeze on profitability. Trailing net margin sits at 10.1% compared with 11.3% a year earlier, while the P/E multiple...

Freightways Group shareholders watched the stock grind lower into this result, with the share price down about 4% over the past week and about 5% over the past month. That short term fatigue sits awkwardly against an earnings print that delivered around NZ$1.46b of revenue and net profit after tax growth of 17% for FY26. The real story now shifts beyond today’s move. Freightways is lifting its full year dividend to NZ$0.45 and running a P/E of 25.6x, which puts the long term risk reward...

Colonial Motor stock closed at NZ$7.10 on Friday, slightly higher over the past week, as traders tried to make sense of an earnings story that looks very different depending on the time frame. The headline is simple. Trailing earnings have increased over the last year and the trailing P/E sits at 10.5x, well below the Oceanic specialty retail average. However, over a longer period, earnings have declined and net profit margins remain thin at 2.1%. Today’s price action suggests a cautious...

Vital Healthcare Property Trust slipped about 3% over the past week into these results and trades around NZ$1.84, only slightly below one recent fair value estimate. That muted move sits awkwardly beside a headline year shaped by internalization of management and adjusted funds from operations that support a distribution of A$0.0975 per unit. The real story today is the internalization. It removes external fees, tightens alignment with unitholders and feeds directly into management expense...
