Endeavour delays its technology separation from Woolworths until 2030

Endeavour, the owner of the Dan Murphy's and BWS chains, has abandoned a key plank of its separation from Woolworths, and the supermarket giant will run its key technology functions until the end of the decade.
The hospitality giant was spun out of Woolworths into a standalone ASX-listed company in 2021. Five years since it initially flagged the demerger, the retailer, which also operates 350-odd pubs and six wineries, is still heavily intertwined and reliant on its former parent, including for the management of store inventory.

In April, the embattled ASX began conducting a wholesale review of the nation's listing rules, following a fierce backlash over James Hardie's $13 billion purchase of American company Azek. In that instance, a waiver was granted that allowed James Hardie to bypass a shareholder vote, issue new shares and make a wildly unpopular acquisition.

Lex Greensill was ‘dishonest', IAG alleges in $7b court battle

Greensill Capital's insurers are racing to include a previously confidential report from Switzerland's financial regulator as part of their defences in an Australian legal battle as they try to avoid up to $7 billion in payouts. ASX-listed IAG and its former subsidiary Bond & Credit Co – now owned by Japanese insurer Tokio Marine – are fighting creditors of Lex Greensill's collapsed financing empire in Federal Court and trying to finalise defence statements ahead of a trial slated for August 2026 in Sydney.
