6 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 $1.7B +12% on FY2025
$0 $2B FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 FY26 FY2021 · $631.7M FY2022 · $847.7M FY2023 · $1.1B FY2024 · $1.3B FY2025 · $1.5B FY2026 · $1.7B
Net income Profit left after every cost, interest and tax for the year. A column below the line is a loss. Methodology $269.7M +19% on FY2025

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 $497.1M +23% on FY2025
$0 $500M FY21 FY22 FY23 FY24 FY25 FY26 FY2021 · $115.4M FY2022 · $137.0M FY2023 · $260.8M FY2024 · $366.6M FY2025 · $405.2M FY2026 · $497.1M
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

  • Net 16%

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 $190.7M net cash

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.
