3Q FY26 Performance Update
Further growth & customer acquisition (+35% Exit Run Rate of subscription revenue vs pcp)
FY26 guidance reiterated for ~35% or greater growth in platform subscription revenue
New product initiatives tracking to plan
ikeGPS Group Limited (IKE) (NZX: IKE / ASX: IKE) is pleased to provide a performance update for the
nine months to 31 December 2025. All figures are in NZD, rounded to the nearest decimal.
Highlights include:
• Exit Run Rate (ERR) of platform subscription revenue ~NZ$21.1m annualized (+35% vs pcp).
• Strong growth of recognized platform subscription revenue in the nine-month period to 31
December 2025 of ~NZ$14.1m (+38% vs pcp).
• Total revenue of ~NZ$19.8m (+7% vs pcp).
• Reiteration of FY26 guidance for ~35% or greater growth in platform subscription revenue and
EBITDA breakeven on a monthly run-rate basis by the end of FY26.
• Gross margin percentage increased to ~79% (up from pcp of 68%).
• Total cash of NZ$32.3m as at 31 December 2025, net receivables of NZ$2.9m, with no debt. This
puts IKE in a strong financial position to execute its product roadmap and market development.
Commenting on further company progress, IKE CEO & Managing Director
Glenn Milnes said:
“3Q26 was another strong quarter for IKE across multiple dimensions - operational performance,
product development, sustainable balance sheet strength, and team capability. Noting also that 4Q26 to
date has seen a strong start in terms of subscription software sales.
We note that the continued development of the two new customer council-led subscription software
modules is progressing to plan. For Module One, we continue to target initial beta customer testing
within the next nine months. Work on Module Two is underway also, with prototyping completed as we
shift into full-scale development. New AI-first development and work practices are very real, so it is an
exciting time to be a growth company building these new products with strong product/market fit.
As previously stated, the business continues to execute on its strategic plan, and we remain confident
in delivering FY26 guidance.
We note that the new IKE PoleForeman design software product released less than two years ago has
now passed NZ$10m recurring revenue on an ERR basis.
The macro-market environment for IKE's business remains highly favourable. Across North America,
electric utilities, communications companies, and their engineering service providers are facing
unprecedented infrastructure investment requirements driven by grid modernization, renewable energy
2
integration, electrification of transportation, deployment of 5G and fibre networks, and aging
infrastructure replacement needs.
These tailwinds are translating into strong and sustained demand for IKE's platform. Our sales pipeline
remains robust, and we continue to add new customers at a healthy pace, while simultaneously
expanding within our existing customer base. The launch of the PolePilot™ AI platform adds another
compelling dimension to our value proposition, including a material price increase to IKE Office Pro, and
we expect it will accelerate both new customer acquisition and expansion within existing accounts.
With a strong balance sheet, leading product capabilities, an experienced and capable team, and
favourable market dynamics, IKE is well positioned to deliver sustained growth and capture an
increasing share of the large and growing market for electric utility infrastructure software solutions.”
