Singular Health Group posts massive revenue jump but stays in the red

Singular Health Group delivered eye-popping growth in FY2026, with revenue surging 507% to $1.43 million. Despite the impressive top-line expansion, the company still reported a loss after tax of $6.34 million. The boost came partly from a contracted US$500,000 licence payment from Provider Network Solutions, alongside increased customer receipts in the second half of the year. Management remained disciplined with capital, plowing investments into developing and commercialising its 3DICOM platform while building out enterprise interoperability capabilities and expanding its U.S. customer base. The company also strengthened its balance sheet through employee and investor option exercises.

Austal navigates rough waters with revenue gains but profit losses

Shipbuilder Austal Ltd posted an 11% revenue increase to $2.03 billion in FY2026, but the company couldn't convert that growth into bottom-line results. Profit from ordinary activities after tax swung to a $53.6 million loss, a significant turnaround from the prior year. Net tangible assets per share fell to $2.85 from $3.03, and the company declared no dividend for the year. The results underscore the challenges facing the defence contractor as it navigates a complex operating environment.

The company's EBITDA climbed to $7.1 million while EBIT grew 11% to $3.1 million. Beyond the numbers, SSH made strategic moves to bolster its capabilities, acquiring Elphinstone Group Pty Ltd in May to expand its maintenance and field services offerings. The company also secured a 6% equity stake in Deep Ventures Pty Ltd, a mineral exploration play. SSH's balance sheet strengthened considerably, with total assets up 16% to $47.4 million and total equity rising 48% to $14.1 million. Heading into FY27, management is focused on disciplined growth across its Hire | Mine | Own strategy while leveraging its newly expanded platform.

RLF Agtech battles margin pressure amid global cost headwinds

RLF Agtech Ltd held revenue flat at $23.4 million in FY26, but the company took a $6.5 million hit to the bottom line as gross margins compressed from 34% to 30%. Rising global fertiliser costs were the culprit, and management chose to absorb most of the increases rather than pass them along, prioritising customer relationships and product differentiation. The company did manage to grow net assets to $8.2 million while holding $6.6 million in cash. Looking ahead to FY27, CEO Stuart Upton signalled a sharp focus on returning to profitability and fulfilling customer commitments in China, where pre-season orders have already been placed and paid for.

Normalised net profit after tax rose 31.6% to $10.8 million, though reported NPAT attributable to shareholders jumped 47% to $10.8 million. The company generated $41.1 million in Group EBITDA, up 29.1%, and finished the year with a fortress balance sheet: $48.5 million in net cash with no debt. Joyce rewarded shareholders with a fully franked final dividend of 17 cents per share, bringing the full-year payout to 30 cents—8 cents higher than FY25.
