The extended, in‑depth assessment—expected to take up to 90 business days—introduces additional regulatory scrutiny but Ampol says it remains confident and still expects the transaction to complete around mid‑2026, a timeline that is important for its plans to expand its retail fuel footprint and competitive position in the Australian convenience and fuel market.
