Commenting on the results, Lesaka Executive Chairman Ali Mazanderani said, "I am delighted that Lesaka delivered on all of its FY2026 guidance metrics, exceeded the top end of our Adjusted EPS guidance range and achieved full-year GAAP profitability for the first time since Lesaka was effectively created in 2022. FY2026 was a milestone year for Lesaka, and we enter FY2027 with real momentum and a platform built for strong, sustainable growth. Looking ahead, I am pleased to share our medium-term ambitions, which includes Adjusted EPS CAGR in excess of 40% over the next three years."
Outlook: First Quarter 2027 ("Q1 2027") and Full Fiscal Year 2027 ("FY 2027") guidance While we report our financial results in USD, we measure our operating performance in ZAR, and as such we provide our guidance accordingly.
For FY2027, the year ending June 30, 2027, we expect:
Net Revenue between ZAR 7.0 billion and ZAR 7.7 billion Group Adjusted EBITDA between ZAR 1.45 billion and ZAR 1.60 billion Adjusted earnings per share between ZAR 7.50 and ZAR 8.50 For Q1 FY2027, the quarter ending September 30, 2026, we expect:
Net Revenue between ZAR 1.58 billion and ZAR 1.66 billion
Group Adjusted EBITDA between ZAR 200 million and ZAR 240 million Adjusted earnings per share between ZAR 0.40 and ZAR 0.60 Q1 FY2027 guidance reflects both seasonality and expected once-off restructuring costs in the merchant business. FY2027 guidance includes the impact of the pending Bank Zero acquisition (subject to regulatory approval by the Financial Surveillance Department of the South African Reserve Bank and other customary closing conditions) and excludes any unannounced mergers and acquisitions that we may conclude.
We have provided outlook regarding Net Revenue, Group Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures and exclude certain revenue and charges. We have not reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP financial measures because guidance for the various reconciling items is not provided. We are unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because we cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of the control of Lesaka and cannot be reasonably predicted since these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.
