Restaurant growth and a higher revenue base frame the latest full-year figures for Guzman y Gomez Limited (ASX:GYG). The Mexican-inspired fast-food operator reported double-digit growth in revenue and underlying Earnings from continuing operations for FY26, as it developed its restaurant platform. Its shares gained 1.42% to AUD 26.39 on 5 November 2026. The daily market performance and the completed financial-year results are separate measures of the business.

Revenue Rises Across the Continuing Business

For the year ended 30 June 2026, the group reported revenue from continuing operations of AUD 520.4 million, compared with AUD 427.1 million in the previous year. That represents 22% growth.

The company’s results distinguish continuing operations from discontinued activities, a separation that is important when reading total statutory results. Its underlying financial measures are also labelled separately from statutory profit. These distinctions allow shareholders to examine the performance of the Business that remains within the reported continuing perimeter.

The figures were published as part of the company’s August 2026 annual reporting package, including the full-year results presentation and annual report.

Underlying Earnings Add Another Measurement

Underlying EBITDA from continuing operations reached AUD 85.0 million, up 29% from AUD 66.0 million. Underlying net profit after tax from continuing operations rose to AUD 53.4 million from AUD 41.2 million, equivalent to a 30% increase.

Statutory profit after tax from continuing operations was AUD 40.6 million, an increase from AUD 30.8 million. The difference between statutory and underlying figures should be preserved, as they reflect different presentation bases.

Growth in underlying earnings occurred alongside higher reported revenue, giving the annual result more than one operating measure. These completed FY26 figures do not establish the earnings outcome for FY27.

The Restaurant Platform Remains the Focus

Guzman y Gomez operates a Mexican-inspired restaurant Brand with dine-in, takeaway and digital ordering channels. Its annual reporting sets the financial context for a business pursuing its restaurant development strategy and customer proposition.

Restaurant development involves the operating network, Franchise and corporate arrangements, food preparation and the customer ordering experience. The group’s published annual results provide the official basis for assessing those activities rather than extrapolating growth from the share price.

The FY26 results package also included a letter from the co-chief executives, giving shareholders a separate account of management’s strategy and priorities.

Share Trading and the Next Operating Update

On 5 November, GYG shares traded between AUD 26.00 and AUD 27.16 before finishing at AUD 26.39. Reported turnover was 838,820 shares, with Market Capitalisation of approximately AUD 2.65 billion. The reported one-year price change was positive 6.41%.

The next reporting periods will show how restaurant activity and continuing-operations earnings evolve beyond FY26. Comparisons should retain the company’s distinctions between continuing and discontinued operations and between statutory and underlying profit. The November trading data does not, by itself, demonstrate changes in restaurant sales or profitability.
