Net tangible assets per security

Net tangible assets are defined as the net assets of the Telstra Group less intangible assets and non-controlling interests. The net assets include both right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities.

The number of Telstra shares on issue as at 30 June 2022 was 11,554,427,353 (2021: 11,893,297,855). As part of our capital management program, we announced the return of up to $1.35 billion to shareholders via an on-market share buy-back which was conducted during the financial year 2022. The shares bought back during the year were subsequently cancelled. Refer to note 4.3 to the financial statements for further details.

The net decrease in net tangible assets per security from 30 June 2021 reflected the impact of:

  • the disposal of a 49 per cent interest in our towers business to non-controlling interests (refer to note 6.1.2 to the financial statements for further details) which increased net tangible assets, and was more than offset by
  • the on-market share buy-back and acquisition of intangible assets via business combinations (refer to note 6.1.1 to the financial statements for further details).
