Their Highlights

My Quick Analysis
Top and bottom lines generally advancing around 20% marks a solid year.
Results vs. Market consensus were:
- Revenue: US$246m consensus vs. US$263m result
- NPAT: US$0.49 consensus vs. US$0.504 result
So a minor beat on revenue and a very minor beat on eps.
The strength of the result lies in the outlook. $ALU are holding to their long-standing FY26 $500m revenue goal, but the kicker is that they are now forecasting that this can be achieved with only 75,000 of the 100,000 aspirational seats, due to increasing value of subscription seats AND that they are holding to the aspirational seats target (upside? - need to hear what CEO ARAM says in the presentation.)
In line with this goal, FY24 revenue target is 20%-23% growth, and they are holding to an EBITDA range of 35%-37%.
My Key Takeaway
Overall - a rock steady performer. (Slow-down? What slow-down?)
SP is just under consensus, so depending on what NASDAQ does overnight, could see a modest lift tomorrow.
Time to go on the call.
