What moved

Cat A rose $6,110 (5.5%) to $118,000, and Cat B rose $5,432 (4.7%) to $121,000. That leaves Cat B $3,000 above Cat A.

Demand was keenest in Cat A, with 2.01 bids for every COE on offer; Cat B drew 1.73.

It is the highest Cat A premium since the Oct 2025, 2nd bidding. A year earlier, in the Apr 2025, 1st bidding, Cat A closed at $97,724, so it is 21% higher than then. Cat A has now risen in 4 exercises in a row.

What it means for renewing

This result was the fifth of the six behind the May 2026 PQP. With the Apr 2026, 2nd bidding that followed, the May 2026 PQP came to:

May 2026 PQP
Cat A$112,324
Cat B$114,577
Cat C$77,884
Cat D$8,960

On that PQP, a 10-year Cat A renewal financed over 118 months at 2.80% flat is about $1,214 a month (Cat B $1,239), and a 5-year Cat A renewal over 60 months at 2.58% about $1,057. Estimates, subject to lender approval.

Renewals made in April 2026 itself pay the April 2026 PQP, Cat A $107,407, which was fixed before this exercise.
