Company Guidance

Management said the FY‑26 “reset” has delivered measurable improvement but FY‑27 is focused on rebuilding profitable orders: average rolling Q3 12‑month franchisee EBITDA is up 11.3% to $105,700 (Australia $128,000) with store margin up from 7.1% to 7.9% and a long‑term franchisee target of $130,000; network sales were $3.87bn (‑6.8%) with same‑store sales ‑4.1%, underlying EBIT $200.1m (+1%), underlying NPAT $121.6m (+4%), free cash flow before divestments up $116.6m to $164.1m (from $47.4m), net debt reduced $227.8m to $497m and net leverage 1.86x (target <2.0x) with interest cover 20.6x and cash + undrawn facilities $467.5m; capital expenditure fell to $38.7m (‑$48.1m) and digital spend to $21.5m (prior $44.8m) with planned digital investment $30–45m; cost actions have delivered $67m of annualised savings ($35.3m realized in FY‑26) toward a $100m program (remainder in FY‑27/28) plus $15–25m procurement opportunities to share with franchisees; trading: group comps were ‑2.5% H1 and ‑5.7% H2 and the first 8 weeks of FY‑27 ~‑5.8%, order count is down ~10–11% (ticket up ~5%), while WA tests show carryout comps positive, five months of record franchisee EBITDA (WA franchisee EBITDA up ~30%), delivery fee trial moved from $8.95 to $5.95 with improved conversion—management will prioritise growing average weekly order count, sustaining cost and capital discipline, and will not provide FY‑27 earnings guidance.
