The setup & the reality

HY26 → FY26 Follow-through

The latest result is checked against what the prior briefing said to watch.

Historical setup

What HY26 said to watch

Previous analysisHY26Result releasedAnnolyse analysis published

From PBT fell 31.8% on 19% revenue growth as costs and book outpaced earnings

No forward targets or guidance are disclosed in this release. The supplied second-half shape figures for FY25 appear to mix scales between subsidiaries and the group, so they are not a reliable seasonal anchor for HY26 and are set aside.

Against the historical baseline, 19.0% revenue growth is below the three-period range of 38.6%–126.6%. This release does not support a view on whether HY26 represents a step-down from that growth trajectory or a temporary slowdown coinciding with the disclosed exceptionals; both interpretations remain open until second-half data lands.

Open questions

Open questions from HY26

  • What specifically were the ~NZ$0.6m of exceptional first-half expenses, and on what basis are they classified as non-recurring?
  • Why did equity grow only 5.4% while total assets grew 47.2%, and how is the additional book funded?
  • Why was the effective tax rate 31.4%, above the historical mean of 28.1%, and is this expected to persist?
  • How should investors read operating cash flow given that loan book and deposit movements run through it?
  • What operating leverage does management expect as the enlarged balance sheet seasons, and what is the path back toward historical ROE of around 7–9%?

This briefing cannot assess the underlying earnings trajectory excluding the disclosed exceptionals because no line-by-line reconciliation or normalised earnings figure was provided.
