Australia Post has returned to profit, reporting earnings of A$18.8 million for the 2025 financial year, reversing the A$88.5 million loss of the prior year. The improvement was underpinned by growth in its parcels business and the delivery of A$158.8 million in business efficiencies.
Group revenue rose 3.6% to A$9.5 billion, despite continued pressure on retail outlets from weaker foot traffic. Parcels and services contributed A$7.6 billion, a 2.9% increase, offsetting a A$230.4 million loss from the letters division.
Chief executive Paul Graham said: “I’m pleased Australia Post has delivered a modest profit this financial year and I want to recognise and thank the 64,000 team members across our extended workforce who continue to work hard to transform our business. This return to profit would not have been possible without the support of the government and our union partners, as we successfully began execution of our modernisation reforms.”
Australia Post highlighted its modernisation reforms as central to stabilising financial performance, while reiterating the need for ongoing transformation to sustain profitability.
