Fonterra FY26 Results: $9.69 Milk Price, $3.4bn Profit
Fonterra has unveiled its annual results for the 2026 financial year, posting $27 billion in revenue and close to $20 billion returned to New Zealand farmer owners and unit holders.
Votes cast at eight meeting venues around the country are now being counted. The meeting ended at 1.35pm.
Fonterra chairman Henry van der Heyden says he has convened a special board meeting this afternoon.
"Once the votes are counted and the results are out, the board will decide whether to proceed with TAF," he told the Hamilton meeting.
Van der Heyden says he will email shareholders on the board decision before holding a media conference.
He has asked for "a clear mandate" from shareholders.
Meanwhile Federated Farmers Dairy chairman Willy Leferink is urging shareholders to respect the board's decision.
"I urge shareholders to show respect to whatever decision the board makes this afternoon," he told farmers from the Ashburton meeting.
He thanks the Fonterra board for holding the second vote on TAF.
