↑ 18%Aussie Broadband caps off 'defining' FY26 with nearly $1.3B in revenue. 24 Aug 2026 4 mins EBITDA up 19.6 per cent, to $165.3 million, and NPAT increased 7 per cent, to $35.3 million. Aussie Broadband has finished off its 2026 financial year with growth across the board, reporting revenue growth of 9.2 per cent, rising to nearly $1.3 billion, for the 12 months ending 30 June. During the period, underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) rose 19.6 per cent, to $165.3 million, while net profit after tax (NPAT) rose 7.5 per cent, to $35.3 million. As a result, Aussie Broadband group CEO Brian Maher said FY26 was a "defining year" for the telco. "Our premium telco offering continued to attract customers and partners, delivering organic connections growth, strategic customer wins and strong financial performance despite a competitive market backdrop," he said. "We grew revenue while improving operating leverage, resulting in EBITDA margin expansion and accelerated earnings growth." Maher also highlighted several strategic acquisitions that took place during the period - including AGL Telco and Nexgen, both of which took place in February - which he said materially strengthened Aussie's growth platform During the financial year prior, Aussie Broadband signed a six-year wholesale services agreement with More Telecom to provide NBN services to it and its jointly operated group company Tangerine Telecom. Separately, Aussie Broadband also agreed to sell its Buddy Telco brand and customer assets to Tangerine. In an update, Aussie Broadband said the migrations associated with those agreements occurred on schedule in June 2026, which added significant scale and created a new go-to-market channel via an indirect banking relationship. Maher said both these agreements and acquisitions underpin its three-year-long Look-to-28 strategy, \"The migration of More and Tangerine connections and the acquisitions of AGL Telco and Nexgen have increased our scale, broadened our customer base and enhanced our ability to meet the evolving needs of customers across all segments,\" he said. During the 12 months, on-net connections grew 41 per cent, to 1.1 million, with Aussie Broadband's market share of on-net National Broadband Network (NBN) services rising to 12.1 per cent. Mobile connections were also up, rising 22 per cent to 263,000, with the introduction of retail international roaming in May and eSIM functionality in July expected to fuel growth in the financial year ahead. On a segment basis, residential revenue was up 12.4 per cent, with broadband maintaining its spot as the main growth driver, coupled with momentum in mobile services via bundling and product enhancements. The business, enterprise, and government segment also increased by 12.4 per cent due in part to larger strategic customer deals and existing customers expanding their adoption of the telco's products. Meanwhile, wholesale revenue rose 9.4 per cent after the successful migration of More and Tangerine services, with gross margin broadly in line with the prior year. The telco added investment into enablement platforms strengthened its ability to scale through multiple channels. Looking to the current financial year, Aussie Broadband said it has currently had a strong start to FY27, with over 120,000 broadband connections added to its network through organic growth and customer migrations. Mobile services have also risen due to recent product enhancements. Excluding its migrations and acquisitions, Aussie Broadband added around 11,000 net new broadband connections since 1 July, which reflects its organic performance after price rises over most of its product plans,. the telco noted. With all of this in mind, Aussie Broadband said during FY27, it expects to deliver underlying EBITDA between $205 million and $215 million, equating to growth from 24 per cent to 30 per cent. "We enter FY27 with strong momentum and a significantly enhanced platform for growth," Maher added. "Its focus now shifts from executing transactions to realising their benefits as Arnnet leverage increasing scale, broadened customer acquisition channels and strengthened capabilities to drive continued organic growth. "With greater scale, multiple growth channels and continued strength in our underlying business, we are well positioned to deliver on our upgraded Look-to-28 ambitions."

Aussie Broadband eyes 1.5 million connections and $2b revenue after wrapping up four acquisitions. By Business News Australia 15 June 2026 Photo: Aussie Broadband via Facebook Telco and internet services provider Aussie Broadband (ASX: ABB) has upgraded its growth ambitions after completing a series of strategic acquisitions and divestments that position the telco to become Australia's third-largest NBN service provider. The Melbourne-based company is now targeting more than $2 billion in group revenue by FY28, along with 1.5 million connections and more than 17 per cent of NBN market share. The company today confirmed the completion of four transactions executed over the past six months, namely the acquisition of AGL Telco, the acquisition of Nexgen Networks, the divestment of Digital Sense Hosting, and the sale of the Buddy Telco brand to Tangerine, which clears the path for a growth push through to FY28. The AGL Telco deal, valued at $115 million in Aussie Broadband shares, brings about 350,000 NBN and mobile connections that will migrate to the Aussie Broadband platform by the second quarter of FY27. The transaction saw the company issue 22 million new shares, representing 7 per cent of issued capital. AGL Telco is expected to deliver $21 million in underlying EBITDA in the first 12 months following migration completion, giving Aussie Broadband a material earnings uplift as the connections come across. Separately, the Nexgen Networks acquisition was completed for $44.1 million in upfront cash plus an earn-out of up to $5.9 million, bolstering the company's fibre infrastructure capabilities. On the divestment side, Aussie Broadband offloaded Digital Sense Hosting and sold the Buddy Telco brand to Tangerine as part of a portfolio reshaping designed to sharpen the group's focus on its core connectivity business. The completion of all four transactions comes after Aussie Broadband surpassed one million broadband connections last month, a milestone underpinned by about 67,000 organic connection additions in the financial year to 31 May. Once all migrations from AGL Telco and the More/Tangerine portfolio are complete, the company expects to have more than 1.3 million NBN connections. The More/Tangerine migration is on track for completion by the end of this month, with about 275,000 active services set to contribute $12 million in annualised EBITDA from FY27, or $7 million after amortised incentives. Aussie Broadband expects FY26 underlying EBITDA to land in the middle of its $162 million to $167 million guidance range, with net debt to EBITDA sitting at 0.72 times. The company has upgraded its Look-to-28 ambitions off the back of the completed transactions. The refreshed targets include more than $2 billion in group revenue, greater than 17 per cent NBN market share, 1.5 million connections, an EBITDA margin above 13.5 per cent, and earnings per share compound annual growth of more than 30 per cent from the FY25 base. Group CEO Brian Maher says the completion of all four deals marks a transformational period for the business. "Completing one transaction is significant but completing four transactions within six months, while delivering the largest migration of connections on the NBN network to date and continuing to grow the business organically, is exceptional," says Maher. "These transactions are central to our upgraded Look-to-28 ambitions, repositioning the company to deliver higher quality and more sustainable earnings streams. "While competition remains strong, our FY27 pricing plans, continued focus on Australian-based customer service, and high-quality network performance position us well to continue winning new customers, particularly those migrating from legacy technologies and lower-speed services. "The operational leverage from increased scale is expected to improve capital efficiency and support stronger returns over time." The AGL Telco acquisition also establishes a five-year strategic partnership between the two companies, with a target of growing the combined connection base to 500,000 over the period. Aussie Broadband expects first-year revenue from the AGL Telco partnership of about $235 million, providing a substantial top-line contribution as the company pursues its $2 billion revenue target.
