What did Mirvac Group management say?
Mirvac’s CEO & Managing Director, Campbell Hanan, said:
FY26 was a year of execution, with earnings growth of 7 per cent. Our results today reflect the work we have done over the past three years to reset the business, improve asset quality and drive higher returns.
Importantly, this has been achieved while strengthening our balance sheet, with gearing within our target range at 24.1 per cent, and strong liquidity and credit ratings maintained. Following the progress we have made to reposition the portfolio, strengthen the balance sheet and improve earnings visibility, we have announced an on-market share buy-back of Mirvac securities of up to $200 million. This reflects our confidence in the value embedded in the business, while providing us with flexibility to deploy capital to opportunities where we see the most value for securityholders.
What’s next for Mirvac Group?
For FY27, Mirvac is targeting operating earnings per security of 13.2 to 13.4 cents and a distribution of 9.9 cents, assuming market conditions remain steady.

Management expects ongoing support from its expanded residential pipeline, growing funds management platform, and new commercial projects. While some uncertainty remains in the market, Mirvac believes it’s well positioned for sustained earnings and NTA growth.
