Ava Risk Group Limited (ASX: AVA) ('Ava' or 'the Company') has announced its full year results for the financial year ended 30 June 2025. The Group reported revenue of $31.7 million, up 5% on the previous corresponding period (PCP), and an underlying group EBITDA of $2.1 million, up $3.0 million from the prior year. The improvement in EBITDA reflects margin gains and cost efficiencies. Sales order intake was $29.9 million (FY2024: $35.3m), with the Company expanding into strategically important industry verticals and key projects across sovereign border protection, airport perimeter detection, and transportation. The sales order backlog stood at $6.4 million, including $2.6 million in contracted annual recurring revenue. The Company ended the year with a cash balance of $5.6 million. CEO Mal Maginnis commented that FY2025 has been a year of continued strategic progress, with the Company strengthening its position as a global leader in sensing and risk management technology and expanding into new markets. Geopolitical events have elevated demand for advanced border security solutions, and the Company has a strong pipeline of opportunities across Eastern Europe and in new markets in the Middle East and Asia. The Company also made progress in airport perimeter detection systems and expanded its scope of work with UGL in the transport sector. A key achievement was the installation of the Aura Ai-X technology on a Telstra subsea cable, opening up new opportunities with international telecom operators. The Company remains focused on driving growth, improving margins, and continuing targeted investment in technology to extend its market leadership.

The Company expects EBITDA margins to improve as revenue grows, leveraging its fixed cost and technology base. It aims to maintain gross margins of 60-65%.

Looking ahead, the Company's priorities are to increase sales order intake, particularly in strategic industry sectors, grow its sales order backlog, including contracted recurring revenues, and continue targeted investment in technology to extend its market leadership.
