Commenting on FY25, Harmoney's CEO & Managing Director David Stevens said:
"We are thrilled to have delivered a record result in FY25, exceeding our upgraded guidance with a
Cash NPAT of $5.7 million, a $5.0 million increase on the prior year. We also surpassed our Cash
Return on Equity guidance, achieving a 24% run-rate in the fourth quarter, ahead of our ambitious
20% run-rate guidance.
Alongside this we have also delivered a Statutory NPAT of $5.5 million, a $18.7 million improvement
on the prior year result, with the prior year being suppressed by a one-off, non-cash write down of our
legacy Stellare® 1.0 platform.
This year's results represent the beginning of the foreshadowed benefits unlocked by our
next-generation Stellare® 2.0 platform. In Australia, a full year operating on Stellare® 2.0 has boosted
new customer originations by 40%. In New Zealand, we completed Stellare® 2.0’s rollout during the
fourth quarter of this year, and it delivered an immediate impact with a more than 50% increase in New
Zealand new customer originations in June 2025 compared to June 2024.
A key strategic driver for implementing Stellare® 2.0 was to provide a modern, agile platform to
accelerate our product innovation. With rollout and migration now complete, we look forward to
bringing new features and products to market in FY26 to further accelerate loan book growth. One of
the first will be our re-vamped secured car loan product leveraging Stellare® 2.0’s “money in seconds”
capabilities to provide customers with the flexibility to become a cash buyer, shopping with a
competitive pre-approved secured credit line, not dependent on dealer finance options.
Stellare® 2.0-boosted origination growth has driven strong Group loan book growth, up 9% to $829
million. Our Australian loan book, which benefited from a full year of Stellare® 2.0, grew by 19%.
Originations remained intentionally subdued in New Zealand for most of the year, awaiting the full
implementation of Stellare® 2.0 in that market, resulting in the New Zealand loan book contracting by
-4% to NZ$366m, however growth returned in June 2025 following Stellare® 2.0’s rollout in that
market.
Group loan book growth was achieved while strengthening our portfolio metrics. Revenue grew by 8%
to $132 million, our Group Net Interest Margin increased to 9.3% (8.8% pcp), as earlier lower yielding
loans made up a smaller proportion of the loan book and funding costs reduced.
Credit losses reduced to 3.7% taking us back down towards our historic trend levels following a
temporary lift to 4.1% in the prior year from the lagging impact of an Australian credit scorecard
replaced several years earlier. While our 90+ day arrears at 30 June 2025 of 0.74% remain low at less
than half the Australian market average of 1.59%, this represented a temporary fourth quarter increase
due to operational impacts from the final Stellare® 2.0 migration. This has since passed and as at July
2025, 90+ day arrears are already back down to more typical levels of 0.64%.
The combined impacts of increased Net Interest Margin and lower credit losses resulted in a
significant uplift in our Risk-Adjusted Income to 5.7%, up from 4.8% pcp.
Harmoney’s high levels of automation, a key feature of our business model, continue to provide
significant operational leverage enabling our loan book and revenue to grow faster than our operating

costs, with our cost-to-income ratio continuing to improve every year since our IPO, with this year now
down to 19%. This is a trend we expect to continue as we scale.
Harmoney remains extremely well-capitalised to fund future growth, with over $1 billion in warehouse
funding capacity, $23 million in unrestricted cash, $13m in accessible cash and positive operating cash
flows to reinvest on book growth.
This year's outstanding performance across all key metrics, combined with completion of our transition
to our exciting new Stellare® 2.0 platform, have set a strong foundation for the year ahead, giving us
the confidence to upgrade our FY26 Cash NPAT guidance by 20% to $12m, representing a 111%
increase on this year’s Cash NPAT of $5.7m.
Finally, I am also pleased to report that Harmoney’s track record of growth and profitability, together
with its strong prospects for the future are gaining market attention, with a number of active investment
funds replacing early series investors during 2H25, with post-IPO investors now comprising 41% of the
register, up from 32% 1H25."
Share buy-back and capital management
Given Harmoney's strong FY25 profit result, capital position and outlook, tomorrow the Company will
resume its share buy-back program of up to 5% of its issued capital, which, following this program’s
initial announcement in April 2025, was paused between the end of the financial year and this results
announcement.
The Board and management continue to see significant value in the Company’s equity at current
levels and believe it is in the best interest of all shareholders for the Company to continue buying back
its own shares.
Given Harmoney has increased its FY26 Cash NPAT guidance to $12m, it continues to expect to
repay some of its corporate debt, which can’t be done without penalty until December 2025, and to
retain substantial cash reserves to materially grow its loan book into future financial years without the
need to raise any equity.
