What did Catapult Sports management say?

Commenting on the results, CEO & Managing Director Will Lopes said:

FY26 was a transformational year for Catapult. We set ourselves ambitious targets: maintain our organic growth rate, reinvest meaningfully in our platform, and stay focused through a period of significant M&A. We delivered on all of them… We are only just beginning to realize the potential of our expanded platform, and I have great confidence in our ability to continue driving this business forward as one of the world's best SaaS companies.

What's next for Catapult Sports?

Looking ahead to FY27, Catapult expects continued strong ACV growth, low customer churn, margin improvements, and higher free cash flow, all remaining consistent with its "Rule of 40" SaaS efficiency targets. The company's expanded platform, which now combines athlete performance data, video analysis, gym monitoring, and scouting intelligence, positions it to deliver new capabilities to professional teams worldwide.

Management says it remains focused on being an "invaluable partner" for customers and driving profitable expansion, with further product rollouts and deeper market penetration expected in the coming year.
