AMA Group lifts margins, confirms FY26 guidance and launches buyback plan

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

Ama Group Limited ( (AU:AMA) ) just unveiled an announcement.

AMA Group reported unaudited normalised pre-AASB 16 EBITDA of $17.9 million for the March quarter and $48.4 million year-to-date, slightly ahead of the prior year, on group revenue of $254.2 million for the quarter and $778.3 million year-to-date. Capital SMART delivered steady high-margin earnings, AMA Collision and Specialist businesses improved profitability through process and utilisation gains, ACM Parts maintained positive EBITDA, and Wales posted solid results despite regional volume softness.

Management highlighted that margin-enhancing process improvements at AMA Collision, increased demand for ADAS calibration and mechanical services, and operational efficiencies at ACM Parts are expected to bolster future earnings. The board plans to implement a share buyback, citing market volatility and a conservative balance sheet, and reaffirmed FY26 EBITDA guidance of $70 million to $75 million, contingent on repair volumes not being materially disrupted by geopolitical developments.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:AMA) stock is a Buy with a A$1.10 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Ama Group Limited stock, see the AU:AMA Stock Forecast page.
