In recent developments, the company reports strong half-year results to December 2024 with 9% growth in reported revenue to $579 million and EBITDA to $292 million, driven by 10% dealer revenue expansion in Australia via enhanced lead volumes and yield, 30% revenue surge in Latin America from national expansion and finance transaction uplifts, and resilient performance in North America and Asia amid market challenges; it completed the acquisition of a 50.1% controlling stake in Autofact Chile SpA for AUD 37.3 million on April 30, 2024, integrating vehicle history reports, price reports, and online title transfer services to bolster its chileautos platform; full FY25 results ending June 2025 showed 8% revenue growth to $1.18 billion, 9% EBITDA increase to $620 million, and 10% NPAT rise to $275 million, underpinned by integrations of prior Trader Interactive and Webmotors acquisitions, alongside divestment preparations for its Tyreconnect assets; and the company refinanced its syndicated loan facility extending maturities to 2028 while guiding for FY26 proforma revenue growth of 12-14% and EBITDA growth of 10-13% in constant currency across all regions through product innovation and market share gains.
