Fonterra Co-operative Group (NZE:FCG) expects fiscal 2026 underlying earnings to reach the top end of its NZ$0.60 to NZ$0.70 per share forecast range, citing "solid" performance throughout the year, according to a Wednesday filing with the New Zealand bourse.
The stronger earnings outlook is expected to support the group's fiscal-year dividend, in line with its policy of distributing 60% to 80% of annual earnings, the filing added.
