CAR Group reports results, issues FY26 guidance

Investing.com -- CAR Group has reported an adjusted net profit after tax (NPAT) excluding minorities of A$377 million for fiscal year 2025, representing a 10% increase year-over-year.

The result fell within the company’s recently provided guidance range of A$376-380 million, aligning with analyst expectations from Macquarie and Visible Alpha, which both estimated A$378 million.

EBITDA margins remained similar to the previous corresponding period, with the company continuing its strategy of "investing to drive future growth."

The group achieved strong cash conversion of 98% and maintained a leverage ratio (net debt to EBITDA) of 1.7x, with net debt standing at A$1,079 million at the end of the period.

Looking ahead, CAR Group has issued guidance for fiscal year 2026 based on constant foreign exchange rates. The company expects pro-forma revenue growth of 12-14%, pro-forma EBITDA growth of 10-13%, and adjusted NPAT growth of 9-13%.

These projections are broadly in line with analyst forecasts when compared to actual foreign exchange forecasts, with Macquarie estimating 14% revenue growth and Visible Alpha projecting 13% growth.
