The positive momentum was driven by higher novated leasing volumes and new client wins in the company's salary packaging business.

Smartgroup's salary packaging customer base grew by 20% year-on-year to 484,000, while novated leases under management increased by 24% to 80,000. The company also expanded its funded lease pilot program, which is resonating with clients and strengthening existing relationships. Smartgroup reported strong cash flow, with net operating cash flow from operations at 138% of NPATA. The company's net debt position at 30 June 2025 was $41.6 million, with leverage (net corporate debt / last 12 months EBITDA) at 0.3x.
