Strong results delivered, laying the foundation to supercharge growth

Top-line growth and improved operating efficiency supported our 19.8% increase in EBITDA, 72.3% increase in profit before tax, and 51.8% increase in cashflow. A 6% increase in payments gross profit was driven by stronger consumer spending and lower churn.

Nigel Lee, CEO, commented: “Our half year results are in line with guidance and demonstrate the strength of our omni-channel experience, integrated payments, and banking proposition. Highlights for the period include an EBITDA margin of 33.6%, a 51.8% increase in cashflow, and the acquisition of Thriday, which enhances future growth opportunities and supports our ambition to be the champion for SMEs.”

Integrated payments and banking proposition bolstered with new banking products

During the half, Tyro launched its new Tyro Transaction Account and the Tyro Flexi Loan. This supported a 38% increase in the number of transaction accounts.

Nigel Lee said: “We are obsessed with helping our customers succeed. Payments are our core, but by delivering the full payments and banking value chain, we differentiate our offer, attract new customers, and deepen long-term relationships. I’m also excited that we were able to announce the acquisition of Thriday, which will help us provide more capabilities to SMEs as we help them manage and grow their business.”

Tyro reaffirms its FY26 guidance of gross profit between $230m–$240m and an EBITDA margin in the range of 28.5%–30%

Nigel Lee said: “Tyro is uniquely positioned to win in Australia, underpinned by strong capabilities and deep understanding of, and integration within, the local market. We are focused on delivering the best solutions for our customers and supercharging our sales and go-to-market engine.”

“We will continue to invest in the capabilities that improve the merchant experience and make Tyro the first choice for Australian SMEs and larger merchants. Having significantly improved our level of profitability, the strength of our balance sheet and cash position provides capacity for us to explore additional growth opportunities, whether that be organic or inorganic.”
