Executive summary
H1 FY2027 NPAT rose 54.2% to R70.8m; HEPS increased 57.4% to 56.2 cents.
Revenue and net interest income grew 40.2% to R681.8m, including six months of Seabourne versus three months in the prior period; excluding Seabourne, growth was 4.9%.
Operating margin rose to 14.2% from 13.5%, despite the expanded mix of lower-margin fulfilment and express courier services.
Financial highlights
Operating profit increased to R96.7m from R65.6m; profit before tax rose 48.1% to R95.8m.
Net profit after tax increased 54.2% to R70.8m from R45.9m; basic EPS was 55.06 cents versus 35.78 cents.
Headline earnings climbed 57.2% to R72.0m; HEPS advanced 57.4% to 56.17 cents from 35.68 cents.
Reported revenue and net interest income growth reflected Seabourne’s fuller-period contribution; comparable growth excluding Seabourne was driven by UK and Netherlands volumes and higher freight rates.
Outlook and guidance
The six months to 28 February 2027 remain uncertain amid protectionist measures, geopolitical tensions, shipping disruptions and freight-rate volatility.
Eurozone manufacturing has returned to expansion, while resilient UK and Netherlands markets are expected to support near-term trade activity.
Diversified geographies, broad services, technology and increased scale following Seabourne support resilience; priorities include execution, efficiency and customer value.
