Recent Development

In its 18 August 2026 release, SKS reported that data centre revenue rose 47.6% to $207.70 million and traditional revenue rose 16.0% to $140.30 million, with 62.1% of revenue falling in the second half. Total expenses grew 28.2% and employee benefits expenses grew 28.8%, both below revenue growth.

The Board declared a final Dividend of 6.5 cents per share. Combined with the 3.5 cent interim dividend, the total dividend for the year is 10 cents per share, up 66.7% from 6 cents in FY25.

Work on hand rose 56% to $312 million at 30 June 2026 from $200 million a year earlier, and the pipeline stood at $1.69 billion, of which about 87.0% of tenders related to data centre work. SKS secured its largest contract to date, a $210 million project to design and build critical electrical systems for a hyperscale data centre in Melbourne, and won work including the new Coles headquarters in Melbourne, an Ernst and Young office fitout and projects for the Australian Defence Force in the Northern Territory.

SKS acquired and integrated Delta Elcom, giving it a presence in New South Wales, Australia's largest data centre market, and secured a new 6,200 square metre Facility in Melbourne's north west for Victorian major projects. Completed projects included works on the new Footscray Hospital and the Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Event Centre.

Not all cash measures increased. Net cash flows fell 41.2% to $17.13 million because of the $10.88 million cash component of the Delta Elcom purchase, and Working Capital was $15.63 million compared with $16.02 million. Cash balances rose 52.7% to $49.60 million from $32.48 million, and bank facilities were increased 62.5% to $52 million.

The company described its safety record as zero lost time injuries for the year, even as workforce numbers and productive hours grew, and zero serious injuries in the 12-year history of the business. SKS Indigenous Technologies employs 43 electrical apprentices or qualified electricians. An online presentation for investors and analysts was held at 10:30am AEST on 18 August 2026.

Sector Context

Data centre construction is the main growth theme in the release. SKS said the new Victorian site is located within the state's data centre development area, where it has completed and is undertaking projects for large international hyperscalers, and that acquiring Delta Elcom gave it a team on the ground in New South Wales to pursue data centre work.

Traditional sectors, such as corporate, government, defence, education, aged care and healthcare, continue to provide work. The company's workforce grew 22.7% and productive hours grew 32.1%, with zero lost time injuries, showing the scale of activity in the sector as projects grow larger.

The release also describes continued Demand for traditional work, with construction of health, defence and commercial projects continuing alongside data centres, and says that the company's bank facilities were expanded to fund working capital needs during rapid growth.

Risks and Uncertainties

The company's outlook depends on continued demand across market sectors, particularly data centres, and on winning and converting large contracts. Its $210 million project is its largest to date, which increases reliance on a small number of large jobs, and about 87% of tender activity relates to data centres.

Growth is also being absorbed by cost and capacity: expenses rose 28.2% and employee costs 28.8%, net cash flows fell 41.2%, and working capital slipped. SKS noted it is investing in cyber security, equipment and systems to support expansion, and the FY27 outlook figures are expectations that depend on current knowledge.

SKS said it introduced new hardware and Point Cloud 3D scanners, cyber security upgrades, an integrated management system and expanded Training programs to support growth, which adds to costs and to execution demands as the business scales.

What to Watch Ahead

For FY27, the Board believes it is reasonable to expect sales revenue of approximately $500 million and profit before tax of $60 million. Chief Executive Matthew Jinks will update investors at the Annual General Meeting in November 2026.

Investors can also follow conversion of the $1.69 billion pipeline into work on hand, progress on the $210 million Melbourne data centre project, the ramp-up of the Delta Elcom and Victorian facility operations, and the dividend policy following the 10 cent FY26 total.

Other items to follow are the annual growth rate of work on hand, which the company describes as 71.7% since December 2022, and any further data centre contract awards that add to the $312 million order book.

The Bottom Line

SKS Technologies' FY26 update showed higher revenue, profit, cash from operations, work on hand and dividends, alongside lower net cash flows and slightly lower working capital after the Delta Elcom purchase. Delivery against the FY27 outlook is the next reference point.
