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 fell 32.2% on smaller revaluation gains; underlying profit up 13%

No formal FY26 financial targets are supplied in the release context, so this briefing assesses the result against the half-year trajectory rather than guidance. H1 FY25 contributed 47.8% of full-year revenue and 49% of NPAT, which is consistent with the company's slightly second-half-weighted shape and indicates that the H2 cadence broadly followed H1's improved sales momentum.

Management commentary in the half-year release flagged improving sales contract rates and growing stock under contract. The full-year volume outcome (1,560 ORA sales vs. 1,238) is consistent with that signal having carried through H2. What the release does not support is any read on the durability of revaluation gains, which drive a large share of reported IFRS profit and which compressed materially in FY25.

Open questions

Open questions from FY25

  • What was the FY25 investment property fair-value uplift, and how much of the PBT decline does it account for relative to other below-the-line items?
  • Why did the effective tax rate normalise from -4.5% to 7.7%, and is 7.7% representative going forward or itself unusually low?
  • How does management plan to evolve capex intensity, given $647.1m of capex against $361.8m of revenue and another $257.0m of borrowings drawn?
  • What is the trajectory of net debt and gearing as the land bank of around 5,500 units is built out, and at what point does development funding capacity constrain pipeline pace?
  • Is the 24.5 cents full-year dividend sustainable against ROE that has slipped from 11.4% to 7.8% while FCF before leases remains negative?

This briefing cannot assess the components of the investment property fair-value movement, the cost-to-build trajectory by village cohort, or forward unit pricing in either New Zealand or Australia from the disclosures supplied.
