The statutory loss attributable to owners increased 149.9% to AU$23.94 million, compared with a loss of AU$9.58 million in FY25. The company recorded no dividend payments, recommendations or declarations during FY26.
Higher Costs Impact Bottom-Line Performance
Ovanti’s loss reflected increased expenditure across several areas, including compliance and professional fees, product development activities and asset impairments. Compliance and professional expenses totalled AU$8.66 million, while product development expenditure reached AU$5.98 million during the year. The company also recognised a AU$2.21 million impairment of intangible assets and a AU$1.16 million impairment related to its investment in an associate.

During FY26, the company raised about AU$16 million in net proceeds through share issues. Issued capital increased to AU$119.53 million from AU$103.53 million, although total equity declined to AU$13.17 million from AU$19.84 million as the year's losses outweighed the new capital.
Business Developments and Outlook
Ovanti’s mobile services business generated AU$2.34 million in revenue during FY26, with operations primarily recorded in Malaysia. The company recognised AU$1.44 million in income from its equity-accounted associate during FY26.
