What else do investors need to know?

The platform benefited from 75 new intermediary relationships and launched several enhancements, including "Nova", a generative AI virtual assistant for advisers, new trading features, and upgraded reporting tools. The company also expanded its relationship with Morgan Stanley to provide new platform solutions.
On the regulatory front, Netwealth progressed its RISE governance program, in line with APRA requirements, and kicked off a project to accelerate product development with technology and AI-driven tools.
What's next for Netwealth?
Netwealth expects to maintain strong profitability and a robust balance sheet. For FY27, the company is targeting FUA net flows between $18 billion and $20 billion—an increase of up to 30%—reflecting ongoing momentum and new growth initiatives.
The company plans continued investment in technology and expects to maintain a solid EBITDA margin of around 47% in FY27, as growth-focused projects ramp up. Netwealth will announce its full-year FY26 results on 26 August 2026.
