Caltex Australia has posted a net profit of $A522m for calendar 2015, compared with $A20m in 2014. Underlying earnings on a replacement cost operating profit basis increased from $A795m to $A977m. However, the downturn in the crude oil price impacted on revenue, which fell from $A23.9bn previously to $A20bn. Shareholders will receive a final dividend of $A0.70 per share and a full-year payout of $A1.17, while Caltex will repurchase $A270m worth of its shares.
