Vista Group International (ISIN NZVGLE0003S1) reported SaaS revenue of NZD 43.5 million in the first half of 2026, up 38 percent year over year, while its market capitalization stood at NZD 634.1 million on October 23, 2026. SaasRise reported the SaaS figure on October 8, 2026, highlighting the companys cloud transition as its main growth engine.
Cloud growth changes the mix
The operating shift is visible in the first-half figures. Vista Cloud contracts covered 44 percent of cinema sites, while total annual recurring revenue reached NZD 170.1 million, up 17 percent year over year, according to SaasRise. The same report put first-half EBITDA at NZD 12.4 million, with an EBITDA margin of 13.8 percent.
What does the cloud growth mean?
The answer is recurring revenue density rather than a simple cinema recovery story. Subscription services represented 50 percent of sales in the first half of 2026, and Vista Payments added another route to expansion revenue. The counterweight is profitability: Simply Wall St reported revenue of NZD 86.3 million and a net loss of NZD 1.50 million for the first half of 2026.
Three milestones shape the story
On March 2, 2026, Vista Group reported fiscal-year 2025 revenue of NZD 164.3 million through Simply Wall St. On August 4, 2026, the same source reported first-half 2026 revenue of NZD 86.3 million and a net loss of NZD 1.50 million. On October 8, 2026, SaasRise reported SaaS revenue of NZD 43.5 million for the first half of 2026.
The next reporting date
Investing.com lists December 2, 2026 as the next reporting date for the period ending September 2026. That date will test whether cloud adoption is translating into a smaller loss and stronger recurring revenue.
Stock valuation and trading level
Vista Group closed at NZD 2.65 on the NZX on October 23, 2026. Its 52-week range was NZD 1.56 to NZD 2.91 as of that date, leaving the share price below the period high while the cloud metrics continue to improve.
