An announcement from Codan Limited ( (AU:CDA) ) is now available.

Codan has delivered a stronger-than-expected second half in FY26, driven by its Communications division and solid momentum at Minelab. The Communications business is now forecast to achieve full-year revenue growth at the top end of its 15% to 20% target range, supported by robust defence demand for unmanned systems and software-defined radios amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.

Management also now expects the Communications segment to reach a 30% profit margin in FY26, a year earlier than planned and up from 26% in FY25, reflecting operating leverage from higher volumes. Minelab’s revenue is tracking ahead of an already strong first half, aided by a favourable gold price and successful product launches, and Codan now anticipates EBIT of about $235 million and NPAT of about $170 million, implying more than 60% growth on FY25.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:CDA) stock is a Buy with a A$38.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Codan Limited stock, see the AU:CDA Stock Forecast page.
