Financials

5 fiscal years · from filings
Revenue What customers paid the company over its fiscal year, before any cost, as filed in its annual report. The change is against the year before. Methodology $526.5M +0.5% on FY2024
$0 $1B FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 FY2021 · $470.3M FY2022 · $489.7M FY2023 · $509.8M FY2024 · $523.8M FY2025 · $526.5M
Net income Profit left after every cost, interest and tax for the year. A column below the line is a loss. Methodology $29.7M -6% on FY2024

Free cash flow Cash from running the business less what it spent on equipment and buildings: the cash a year actually left behind, which profit alone does not show. Not shown for banks and insurers, whose cash moves with their loans. Methodology $25.8M -42% on FY2024
$0 $50M FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 FY2021 · $23.0M FY2022 · $14.7M FY2023 · $14.2M FY2024 · $44.5M FY2025 · $25.8M
Margins Each as a share of revenue. Gross: left after the direct cost of what was sold. Net: left after every cost. Free cash: free cash flow over revenue. A margin rising over years means the business keeps more of each dollar it sells. Methodology

Cash and long-term debt Cash on the balance sheet at the year's end beside debt due after a year. Net cash is cash less that debt; net debt is the shortfall. Debt some filers do not tag shows as a gap, not as zero. Methodology $87.6M net debt

Shares outstanding Shares in issue at the year's end. A rising count means each share owns a smaller slice of the company (stock pay, share sales); a falling one, buybacks. The chart's scale is fitted to the count, so a small change looks large: read the percentage. Methodology 46.10m
