The latest announcement is out from Mayfield Childcare Ltd. ( (AU:MFD) ).

Mayfield Childcare Limited reported a 3.7% increase in revenue and other income to $91.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2025, but swung to a significant net loss of $21.4 million attributable to members. No dividend was declared or paid for the period, net tangible assets per share remained negative even on an underlying basis, and the auditor issued a qualified opinion due to insufficient evidence over the completeness and accuracy of related party disclosures, highlighting governance and reporting concerns for investors.

The company reported no changes in control over other entities, has no associates or joint ventures, and operates solely in its existing structure. Its audited full-year financial statements and directors’ report were released alongside the results, but the modified audit opinion on related party disclosures may weigh on market confidence despite modest top-line growth.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:MFD) stock is a Hold with a A$0.56 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Mayfield Childcare Ltd. stock, see the AU:MFD Stock Forecast page.
