Summary
Origin Energy Limited reported its half-year results for the period ending 31 December 2025, showcasing strong performance in its Integrated Gas segment with a significant increase in underlying EBITDA due to higher LNG trading gains, although APLNG production saw a slight decline. The company declared fully franked dividends from APLNG and maintained a strong liquidity position to support upcoming debt maturities and capital requirements. Total revenue and profit showed positive growth, while adjusted net debt increased, yet remained within the targeted ratio. A final dividend was declared, maintaining a stable return to shareholders. Additionally, the company's financial position was strengthened with reduced gearing in the APLNG project finance debt.
