FY26 group EBITDA increased 12% to AUD 151.7 million, with the margin reaching 37.3%.

PEXA Group Limited (ASX:PXA) operates digital infrastructure for property transactions, connecting lenders, conveyancers and other participants in electronic settlements. Its latest full-year results provide an updated picture of the Australian Exchange business, the UK platform rollout and the effect of exiting non-core businesses. At the time of writing on 19 October 2026, PEXA shares were trading at AUD 6.56, down 0.76% during the day’s trading session.

Company Business

PEXA’s Australian Exchange supports electronic lodgement, financial settlement and related workflows for property transactions. Banks, conveyancing firms and legal professionals use the platform to complete settlement processes through a shared digital network. The business is exposed to Australian transfer and refinancing volumes, transaction pricing, system availability and applicable industry rules.

Outside Australia, PEXA is building a platform for property settlement and remortgaging in England and Wales. The UK venture requires lender, lawyer and conveyancer integration as well as adoption of new workflows. Following a strategic review, the company also moved to exit majority-owned Digital Solutions businesses and concentrate resources on its exchange and international activities.

Recent Development

In August 2026, PEXA published its FY26 results for the year ended 30 June 2026. The release showed an increase in continuing-operations revenue and EBITDA, accompanied by higher free cash flow and lower balance-sheet leverage. Performance comparisons in the FY26 release reflect the classification of exited Digital Solutions activities as discontinued operations; the comparative continuing-operations figures therefore differ from earlier group-wide disclosures.

The strategic review announced in February resulted in an exit process for the majority-owned Digital Solutions businesses. PEXA had already exited Land Insight and its minority interest in Elula, while the group continued transactions involving other assets. This reshaping changes the scope of operations and the way historical revenue and earnings are compared.

The company has also been responding to an Australian review of fees charged by electronic lodgement network operators. That process matters to the commercial framework governing the Australian Exchange, although any change and its timing depend on regulatory decisions. In the UK, PEXA’s focus remains on implementation with participating lenders and conveyancing providers rather than the immediate scale of Australian operations.

Financial Performance and Sector Context

For FY26, PEXA reported group revenue from continuing operations of AUD 406.9 million, compared with AUD 379.5 million in FY25, representing 7% growth. Group EBITDA increased from AUD 135.1 million to AUD 151.7 million, up 12%. The reported EBITDA margin increased from 35.6% to 37.3%, a rise of 1.7 percentage points. These are core financial operating measures as defined by the company.

Group NPATA rose from AUD 48.2 million in FY25 to AUD 65.3 million in FY26, an increase of 35%. Statutory net profit after tax from continuing operations was AUD 19.2 million, against a loss of AUD 65.6 million in the comparative year. Because adjusted profit measures exclude specified items, they should not be read as equivalent to statutory profit.

Free cash flow increased 39% to AUD 93.5 million from AUD 67.2 million, while net debt divided by EBITDA declined from 1.8 times to 1.0 times. These figures indicate changes in cash generation and leverage, but do not eliminate operational or regulatory exposures. Property transfer volumes, refinancing cycles and adoption of digital workflows remain relevant influences on settlement-processing demand.

The Australian market is shaped by property turnover, housing finance activity and regulation of electronic lodgement systems. A decline in transfers can affect transaction-related revenue even where penetration of digital settlement is mature. The UK business operates in a different legal and market structure, making product integration and participation by institutions material to the pace of deployment.

Risks to Consider

PEXA faces transaction-volume risk from changes in Australian housing turnover and refinancing activity. Regulatory decisions on electronic-lodgement fees could alter revenue per transaction or compliance requirements. Technology resilience, cybersecurity and uninterrupted processing are operational considerations for critical property infrastructure. In the UK, rollout schedules, customer integration costs and the speed of lender and conveyancer participation may affect the financial contribution of international activities.

What to Watch Next

Subsequent company announcements may clarify the progress and final accounting treatment of Digital Solutions divestments, updates to the Australian electronic-lodgement pricing framework and milestones for UK platform adoption. Investors can also monitor the next scheduled financial results for transaction volumes, revenue per transaction, operating expenditure, cash flow and leverage. Each measure offers a different view of business activity and execution.

Key Insights

PEXA’s FY26 report recorded higher continuing-operations revenue, EBITDA, adjusted profit and free cash flow, together with a lower leverage ratio. Its operating position remains centred on Australian digital property settlements, while UK expansion and Australian fee regulation introduce additional execution and policy considerations. Future disclosures on property transactions, regulatory outcomes and international implementation will help assess how the business is changing.
