Lindsay Australia Delivers Resilient FY25 Performance
- Group revenue up 5.6% to $849.8 million
- Underlying EBITDA down 11.7% to $81.4 million
- Acquisitions expand network into new regions
Lindsay Australia Limited (ASX: LAU) today announced its financial results for the year ended 30 June 2025, delivering a resilient performance in a challenging market environment. Group revenue increased 5.6% to $849.8 million, supported by organic growth in both the Transport and Rural divisions and contributions from recent acquisitions. Underlying EBITDA decreased 11.7% to $81.4 million, reflecting margin pressure from a competitive operating environment, higher labour and input costs, and softer consumer demand. The Transport division saw revenue growth of 5.9%, though underlying segment profit declined 12.4% due to the competitive landscape and elevated input costs. The Rural division reported an 8.7% increase in revenue and a 10.7% rise in underlying profit before tax, driven by market share gains and the strength of its packaging segment. The company continued to execute on its strategic priorities, investing $50.8 million in fleet, infrastructure, and initiatives, and maintaining a net leverage ratio of 1.53x within its target range. Lindsay Australia completed the acquisitions of GJ Freight, Nagambie Equine and Rural, and SRT Logistics, expanding its network and capabilities across Western Australia, Victoria, and Tasmania. The company is focused on realizing acquisition synergies, enhancing operational efficiencies, and maintaining pricing discipline to drive margin recovery in the year ahead.
Lindsay Australia is targeting $1 million in synergies from the SRT Logistics acquisition in FY26, with further upside expected as network efficiencies, procurement leverage, and scale benefits flow through.
Lindsay Australia is focused on realizing acquisition benefits, embedding and extracting value from recent acquisitions, continuing its transformation to enhance efficiencies and asset utilization, and maintaining pricing discipline to drive margin recovery in the year ahead.
