Australian Securities Exchange stock reports FY26 revenue growth
Published on 10/07/2026 at 05:14 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSAustralian Securities Exchange (ISIN AU000000ASX7) was trading at AUD 58.64 on the Australian Securities Exchange in Sydney at 1:53 p.m. AEDT on October 7, 2026, down 0.24 percent. The exchange's FY26 results remain the central company event, with operating revenue growth set against higher technology and regulatory costs.
FY26 revenue grew 13.3 percent
In its account of ASX Limited's results presented on August 13, 2026, Fintech Intelligence reported FY26 operating revenue of AUD 1.25 billion for the year ended June 30, 2026, up 13.3 percent from the prior year. Underlying net profit after tax increased 5.2 percent, giving investors a second growth measure beyond the top line.
The cost side was less supportive. Fintech Intelligence reported an EBITDA margin of 61.0 percent, down 180 basis points, while underlying return on equity improved to 13.7 percent. That combination leaves execution of ASX's technology modernization program as the key test for whether revenue growth can translate into stronger earnings leverage.
Analysts see limited upside
The analyst picture is measured rather than bullish. Investing.com shows a Neutral consensus based on 12 analysts, including 2 Buy, 8 Hold and 2 Sell ratings. The average 12-month target is AUD 59.20, with a low of AUD 52.00 and a high of AUD 67.00.
Against the AUD 58.64 intraday price on October 7, 2026, the average target lies 0.96 percent above the stock. The narrow gap contrasts with the FY26 revenue increase and puts greater weight on margin discipline, the CHESS technology rollout and the exchange's ability to control transformation costs.
AGM date sets the next checkpoint
ASX's shareholder page lists October 22, 2026 as the company's Annual General Meeting and August 13, 2026 as the FY26 results date, according to ASX. The AGM gives shareholders a scheduled point to assess leadership, regulatory commitments and progress on the multi-year technology program.
