Agency Portfolio Performance Remains Key Focus

Enero’s recent financial performance has reflected different trends across its agency businesses.

The company’s Australian agencies, including BMF and Orchard, have contributed to revenue growth and profitability improvement, while Hotwire Global has faced challenges due to softer technology-sector spending conditions.

During the first quarter of FY2026, Hotwire revenue declined 11% and EBITDA declined 38%, leading management to implement measures focused on restructuring and repositioning the business. A new global chief executive commenced in January 2026 as part of the company’s efforts to address Hotwire’s operating performance.

The company previously highlighted the need to reset and refocus Hotwire while continuing to develop its Australian agency operations.

H1 FY2026 Results Show Profit Improvement

Enero reported net revenue of AUD 68.0 million for the six months ended 31 December 2025, representing a 1% decline compared with the prior corresponding period.

Despite lower revenue, EBITDA before significant items increased 15% to AUD 7.4 million, with EBITDA Margin expanding to 10.8% from 9.3%.

The company recorded net profit after tax of AUD 0.3 million in H1 FY2026 compared with a loss of AUD 4.3 million in the previous corresponding period.

Enero also declared a fully franked interim dividend of 1.0 cent per share, which was paid on 10 April 2026.

Balance Sheet Remains a Key Consideration

Enero reported net cash of approximately AUD 23.6 million as at 31 December 2025, compared with AUD 27.5 million at 30 June 2025.

The company also had access to an undrawn AUD 15 million bank Facility , providing additional financial flexibility.

The balance sheet position remains an important Factor as the company manages changes across its agency portfolio and evaluates future operational priorities.

The company’s dividend history has reflected changing Earnings conditions, with distributions reduced over recent periods. The FY2026 results will provide further visibility on future Capital allocation and dividend considerations.

OB Media Sale Changes Business Mix

Enero’s business mix has changed following the sale of OB Media on 30 June 2025.

The disposal removed OB Media from continuing operations and reduced exposure to the previously volatile digital media segment.

Following the transaction, Enero’s revenue contribution has become more focused on its agency businesses, including BMF, Orchard and Hotwire Global.

International markets represented approximately 48% of net revenue in H1 FY2026, compared with 66% a year earlier, reflecting changes following the OB Media transaction and Hotwire performance.

Marketing Services Environment Remains Challenging

Enero operates within the marketing and communications sector, where client spending patterns can be influenced by broader economic conditions and business confidence.

Technology-sector spending conditions have affected Hotwire Global, while domestic agency operations have provided a different operating trend.

The company’s future performance will depend on its ability to improve Hotwire operations, maintain agency client relationships and manage costs across its business portfolio.

Outlook Ahead of FY2026 Results

Enero Group’s FY2026 results will provide further information on revenue trends, profitability, agency performance and capital management priorities. Key areas of focus include Hotwire Global’s operational progress, continued performance from BMF and Orchard, cash preservation and future dividend decisions. The company enters the results period with net cash of AUD 23.6 million and an undrawn AUD 15 million facility as at 31 December 2025. The FY2026 update is expected to provide further visibility on the company’s strategic direction and operating outlook.
