Fonix (LSE:FNX) reported a strong performance for the six months to 31 December 2025, with gross profit rising 7.1% to £10.5m and adjusted EBITDA increasing 6.4% to £8.3m. Growth across all key service lines supported a 6.9% rise in the interim dividend to 3.1p per share. The company also highlighted the reliability of its platform, maintaining 100% uptime and more than 99% recurring income, while delivering resilient trading despite slightly lower underlying cash and minimal exposure to upcoming UK gaming tax changes.
Operationally, the group continued to expand across Europe, reporting progress in Portugal, the launch of a live pilot in a third market and early groundwork for entry into a larger fourth territory targeted for FY27. Product development also advanced, including enhancements to its Campaign Manager platform, the rollout of PayFlex in Ireland, initial deployments of CompsPortal and broader trials of RichMessaging services. These initiatives strengthen Fonix’s position as a specialised mobile payments intermediary operating within the ecosystems of broadcasters and mobile network operators.
Management said the business enters the second half of FY26 with positive momentum in its core UK and Irish markets and a robust pipeline of enterprise opportunities. The company is also incorporating AI tools internally to improve development processes, operational optimisation and customer outcomes. The board reiterated its confidence in delivering sustainable gross profit growth and long-term shareholder value in line with market expectations, supported by recurring revenues, international expansion and structural barriers to entry around its core platform.
Fonix Mobile PLC’s outlook is underpinned by solid financial performance and an attractive valuation profile, complemented by positive corporate developments that reflect strategic progress and shareholder confidence. Technical indicators suggest near-term bullish momentum, although potential longer-term resistance levels may remain. Limited earnings call disclosure means there is less visibility into detailed forward guidance from management.
