News Summary:

Telstra Group Limited adjusted its Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) price to AUD 4.79700 per security on September 11, 2026, for the ordinary dividend for the six-month period ending June 30, 2026. Previously, on September 10, 2026, Telstra Group priced a CHF200 million bond issue with a seven-year maturity, with proceeds designated for general corporate purposes. This followed Telstra and Ciena achieving a record 1.6 terabits per second transmission over 1,100 kilometers, a world-first ultra-high-capacity wavelength transmission over the longest distance using a single channel with Ciena's WaveLogic 6 Extreme technology, as announced around September 9, 2026. Earlier on September 9, 2026, an independent investigation concluded that a neglected network timing system caused a nationwide Telstra outage in July 2026. The report found the disruption occurred when a reset GPS card sent incorrect 2006 date data through the mobile network due to missing software updates and weak operational oversight, leading to blocked emergency calls, train line disruptions, and payment system failures, which resulted in executive pay cuts and customer compensation.
