The second GfK radio ratings survey of 2026 shows a market in transition rather than turmoil, with KIIS FM's breakfast share easing only slightly after the departure of Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O Henderson. The station's breakfast slot dropped from 12.7% to 11.7%, a modest decline given that the pair were still on air for about 60% of the survey period.
In Melbourne, Gold's Christian O'Connell maintained a stable 10.5% share, down just 0.1 points, contrasting with his softer performance in Sydney. Fox FM's Fifi, Fev and Nick rose to 9.6% from 8.8%, while KIIS FM posted a modest lift from 5.1% to 5.4%, suggesting some audience return after earlier disruption from the networked rollout of The Kyle and Jackie O Show.
In Sydney, KIIS 973's breakfast team of Robin, Kip & Corey slipped 0.2 points, a marginal dip despite the show's return after being axed last year. B105's Stav, Abby & Matt eased from 12.1% to 11.8%, while Nova's Nick, Luttsy & Susie O'Neill gained from 9.3% to 10.3%.
In Adelaide, Triple M's Roo, Ditts & Loz continue to dominate breakfast despite a slight dip from 14.4% to 13.9%. Nova's Jodie & Hayesy lifted to 10.2% from 9.7%, drawing level with SAFM's Bel, Bernie & Emma G, who jumped from 8.9% to 10.2%. KIIS's new duo Ben & Liam recorded an early gain from 8% to 9%.
In Perth, Nova 93.7's Nathan, Nat & Shaun remained dominant with a 17.5% share, down just 0.1 points. Mix 94.5's Pete & Kymba rose from 11.3% to 12.6%, while Gold 96FM's Lisa & Russell slipped from 9.7% to 9.1%.
