Bapcor Limited (ASX: BAP) has issued an updated outlook for 1H26 and FY26, reflecting softer-than-expected trading conditions in the early months of the financial year. The Trade segment underperformed, particularly in tools and equipment, while pricing investments aimed at regaining market share temporarily pressured margins. As a result, statutory NPAT for 1H26 is forecast to fall into a loss of AU$5–8 million, largely influenced by AU$19 million in one-off items. Underlying NPAT, however, remains positive at AU$5–8 million. Retail performance was comparatively resilient, supported by strong Black Friday sales, and the Networks and New Zealand divisions tracked in line with expectations.
For FY26, Bapcor anticipates statutory NPAT of AU$31–36 million, underpinned by expected second-half improvements driven by operational enhancements, pricing realignment, efficiency initiatives, and the absence of one-off charges. Leadership changes in key segments support ongoing turnaround efforts.
