COG Financial Services lifts profit and dividends despite weaker net tangible assets

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

COG Financial Services Limited ( (AU:COG) ) has issued an update.

COG Financial Services reported an 8.6% rise in revenue from continuing operations to $198.5 million for the half year ended 31 December 2025, with net profit from continuing operations up 9.5% to $14.9 million and profit attributable to members increasing 16.7%. Earnings per share climbed to 4.80 cents, yet net tangible assets turned more negative, reflecting higher intangible assets, while the board maintained a fully franked dividend stream, including an interim FY26 dividend of 3.5 cents, underscoring ongoing shareholder returns despite balance sheet pressures.

Dividends paid or declared over the period included a reduced final FY25 dividend of 3.0 cents compared with 4.4 cents a year earlier, alongside interim and final FY25 payouts also set at 3.0 cents per share. The scheduled increase to a 3.5 cent fully franked interim dividend for FY26 indicates management’s confidence in earnings resilience, even as rising intangibles weigh on reported net tangible asset per share metrics and may prompt closer scrutiny from investors.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:COG) stock is a Hold with a A$1.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on COG Financial Services Limited stock, see the AU:COG Stock Forecast page.
