Refined fuel retailer Ampol reported third-quarter 2026 Lytton refiner margin of USD 23.92 per barrel, more than double the prior corresponding period. And it says group third-quarter underlying EBIT grew relative to the quarterly average for second-half 2025. Shares were down 5% in early trading.
Ampol is well-placed, with a leading market share in transport fuels. This position is backed by an extensive distribution network.
Ampol earnings are subject to influences outside of management control—currency, crude oil prices, and the Singapore refiner margin.
