MA Financial Group Limited has reported its financial results for the half-year ended 30 June 2025. Total income for the period was $367.9 million, up 50.5% from the prior corresponding period, driven by a 30% increase in revenue from ordinary activities to $558.5 million. However, profit after tax attributable to ordinary equity holders was $7.6 million, down 43.7% from the prior corresponding period. Total comprehensive income attributable to ordinary equity holders was $2.9 million, down 76.0%. The Group's Asset Management segment continued to grow its recurring revenue, offset by softer transaction fees and timing of fund deployment. The Lending & Technology segment recorded strong loan book growth and improved net interest margins, while the Corporate Advisory & Equities segment had a positive start to the year despite limited equity capital markets activity. The Group's statutory total assets amounted to $8,468.4 million as at 30 June 2025. Subsequent to the reporting date, the Directors have resolved to pay a fully franked interim dividend of 6.0 cents per share for the half-year ended 30 June 2025, payable on 24 September 2025.
