EBITDA rose 19.8% to $39.5 million with margin expanding to 33.6%, supported by stronger transaction volumes and improved operating efficiency.
New banking products and the Thriday acquisition strengthened Tyro’s SME growth strategy while the company reaffirmed its FY26 guidance.
Profit Surge Lifts Investor Confidence
Tyro Payments Limited (ASX: TYR) drew strong investor interest following the release of its half-year earnings, with the upbeat results helping push the company’s share price higher. At the time of writing, Tyro’s stock was trading around $0.96, up about 2.1%, as investors reacted to a sharp improvement in profitability. For the six months ended December 2025, statutory net profit before tax jumped 72.3% year-on-year to $17.7 million, reflecting stronger earnings from the core payments business and tighter cost control. The update confirms the story has already been covered across financial news platforms, underlining its status as a trending market mover.
Core Earnings and Volumes Drive Growth
Tyro reported solid top-line momentum, supported by increased transaction values and lower customer churn. Gross profit climbed 5.0% to $117.6 million, while EBITDA rose 19.8% to $39.5 million at the time of writing. This lifted the EBITDA margin to 33.6%, up from 29.5% a year earlier. Free cash flow also strengthened, rising 51.8% to $13.6 million, highlighting improved operating efficiency and disciplined capital management. Management credited stronger consumer spending and improved execution across its payments platform for the gains.
Banking Push and Acquisition Add Momentum
Beyond payments, Tyro continued to expand its banking proposition. During the period, the company introduced its Tyro Transaction Account alongside the Tyro Flexi Loan, which helped significantly expand its transaction account base by 38%. It also revealed plans to acquire Thriday, an AI-driven financial management platform for small businesses, as part of its strategy to expand product offerings and strengthen long-term customer engagement. Looking ahead, Tyro reaffirmed its FY26 guidance, targeting gross profit of $230–$240 million and an EBITDA margin of 28.5%–30%. With profits rising sharply and strategic investments underway, investors are now watching closely to see whether Tyro can sustain this momentum through the remainder of the financial year.
