The setup & the reality

FY25 → HY26 Follow-through

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

Historical setup

What FY25 said to watch

Previous analysisFY25Result releasedAnnolyse analysis published

From PBT up 59.9% on margin expansion; NPAT growth of 264% flattered by tax

The release contains no explicit FY26 earnings guidance or revenue target, so the result cannot be benchmarked against stated ambition. Operational disclosures (47m NZ kiwifruit trays packed, up 10%; Australian volumes up 25%) provide volume context but no quantified forward-work indicator. HY25 contributed 48.4% of full-year revenue but only 38.0% of EBITDA and 32.8% of NPAT, confirming a heavily second-half-weighted earnings shape consistent with the harvest cycle. The central uncertainty is whether the step-up in post-harvest gross margin to 37.9% holds in a year that may not benefit from the same volume and mix conditions.

Open questions

Open questions from FY25

  • What specifically drove post-harvest gross margin from 26.6% to 37.9%, and how much is structural automation versus volume-leverage on a strong harvest?
  • Why was the FY24 effective tax rate near 70%, and is there any residual one-off element still affecting comparability?
  • Why have debtor days fallen to 11.2 from 15.6, below the historical range, and is this a permanent step-down or a timing benefit?
  • How should the lifted payout ratio of 32.9% be read against the strengthened balance sheet — is this a new dividend policy level?
  • What forward-work or volume signals exist for FY26 kiwifruit harvest that would support the elevated earnings base?

This briefing cannot assess whether the post-harvest margin expansion reflects durable structural gains or favourable harvest-year economics that will not repeat.

HY26 · Released 20 August 2026

Cash conversion fell to 66.1% as a lower tax rate lifted NPAT 20.1%

Profit before tax rose only 5.4% while a falling tax rate pushed NPAT growth to 20.1%, masking weaker cash generation and segment margin pressure.

Read briefing

FY25 · Released 27 February 2026

PBT up 59.9% on margin expansion; NPAT growth of 264% flattered by tax

Post-harvest segment gross margin lifted from 26.6% to 37.9% drove the real operating gain, while a normalising tax rate amplifies the headline NPAT

Read briefing

FY24 · Released 27 February 2025

Seeka EBITDA surged 192.9% but tax distortion masked a PBT-to-NPAT gap

Revenue jumped 36.7% on a kiwifruit volume recovery, lifting PBT to NZ$29.7m from a NZ$21.0m loss, while a -70.5% effective tax rate widened the gap

Read briefing

FY23 · Released 28 February 2024

$14.5m loss and 6.63x leverage trigger dividend suspension

A NZ$24.5m working-capital release lifted operating cash, but FCF pre-lease was still NZ$-20.1m and banking support was needed.

Read briefing

HY23 · Released 23 August 2023

PBT fell 54.8% and leverage rose to 4.9x EBITDA

Cash conversion collapsed from 38.8% to 12.3% in Seeka's seasonally strong half, with orchard and Australian operations swinging to losses.

Read briefing

FY22 · Released 23 February 2023

Dividend cut to zero as cash conversion fell to 26.3% and FCF turned negative

Revenue grew 12.5% but a loss-making second half, NZ$17.6m of pre-lease cash burn and leverage at 3.2x EBITDA dominate the read.
