Commenting on the result, hipages Group CEO & Founder, Roby Sharon-Zipser said:
“FY25 was a pivotal year of strategic delivery for hipages Group, with the successful migration
of our customer base onto our new single tradie platform Tradiecore, new pricing plans in
Australia and subscription model implementation in New Zealand. I’m incredibly proud of the
efforts of the team to deliver these key strategic milestones while continuing our strong growth
trajectory.
“To have achieved our guidance for revenue growth, EBITDA margin and free cash flow, while
undertaking the most complex technology implementation in our history, is a huge
achievement.
“The step change in our free cash generation is particularly pleasing, with every incremental
dollar of revenue generated in FY25 over the prior year, delivering 47 cents in free cash. This
showcases the power of our efficient operating model to generate significant and growing
cash flows while investing for long-term growth.
“With all 33k of our Australian customers now on Tradiecore and 13% actively using job
management features, we are seeing promising early signs for retention and engagement.
Looking ahead, our focus is on building new Tradiecore functionality and adding new services
that we expect will drive further engagement and profitable growth.”

FY26 outlook and strategic roadmap
FY26 is set to be a year of momentum and innovation as we aim to activate engagement of
tradies on the platform and unlock the next phase of growth across our marketplaces in
Australia and New Zealand. Our priorities include enhancing lead pricing mechanics,
matching, and self-serve capabilities — making it easier and faster for tradies and
homeowners to connect.
We are planning the release of powerful new features within our software solutions, with a
strong focus on driving adoption and delivering greater value for customers. We also see
opportunities to broaden our platform with a suite of adjacent services, designed to deepen
engagement and open new revenue streams. Importantly, we are progressing the
embedding of AI across our product and operations — a step that brings our product vision
closer to reality and lays the groundwork for the future of tradie and homeowner technology.
With the majority of the STP migration, pricing model change and NZ subscription model
implementation now complete, the Group enters FY26 with strong dynamics to drive revenue
and profits.
For FY26, hipages Group is targeting:
•
•
•
Revenue growth of 10%-12%
EBITDA margin of 24%-26%
Free cash flow of $8-$10 million
