Kinatico looks like an interesting, fast growing SaaS business and the 1H26 results look impressive. However, it appears the market was expecting more with the share price down 9% today (14/01/26). This looks like a good business to own, but at what price? It currently trades on 100 times FY25 earnings and 45 times analyst earnings forecasts for FY26. It stays on my watchlist until I can work out what it’s worth.

Highlights

• Q2FY26 SaaS revenue of $4.9m (up $1.5m or 42% on prior corresponding period (pcp)), representing 58% of total revenue (46% pcp) with annualised SaaS revenue of $19.7m on the basis of Q2FY26 run rate
• H1FY26 total revenue of $17.6m (up $2.0m or 13% on pcp)
• Kinatico’s H1FY26 closing cash and cash equivalents balance was $10.4m (up $0.6m on pcp)
• H1FY26 SaaS revenue of $9.7m (up $3.2m or 49% on (pcp)
