  • Net profit after tax (NPAT): Up 50.2% to $31.7 million (FY25: $21.1 million)

What else do investors need to know?

SHAPE Australia reached a significant milestone, surpassing $1 billion in annual revenue for the first time. The company attributed its strong growth to a mix of new project wins, continued sector diversification (with non-office sectors now making up over half of total revenue), and the expansion of regional operations.

Two strategic acquisitions—Arden in December 2025 and Australian Professional Shopfitters (APS) in July 2026—broadened the Group's capabilities, especially in facilities maintenance and retail fitout, and created pathways for further cross-selling opportunities. The year also saw a healthy increase in the order backlog (up 28% to $628.4 million) and the project pipeline (now $4.8 billion, up 20%).

The business maintained a strong focus on people and safety: workforce grew by 30% to over 890 employees, employee engagement scored 86%, and safety performance improved despite higher activity levels.

What did SHAPE Australia management say?

Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director Peter Marix-Evans said:

FY26 was a defining year for SHAPE. Our teams delivered a larger and more diverse volume of work across more sectors, regions and service lines, while improving safety performance, project outcomes and client experience.

What's next for SHAPE Australia?

SHAPE enters FY27 with confidence, supported by a solid $628 million order backlog and a $4.8 billion identified project pipeline. The company plans to further consolidate its presence in premium office assets and expand into priority sectors such as data centres, education, health, aged care, and defence.

The integration of Arden and APS is underway and expected to provide additional operational leverage and growth. SHAPE will continue to invest in talent, technology, and capability expansion (including new build and modular construction), while remaining disciplined in risk and procurement.
