  • Maintains $65 million bank guarantee and transaction facilities from existing lenders

  • Will recognise a $29 million liability in the European segment due to revenue recognition review

What else do investors need to know?

Corporate Travel Management's FY25 and 1H26 financial statements will be released by 28 August 2026, with the company expecting its FY26 full year results to follow soon after. The company has completed reviews into its air margin accounting in Europe and asset impairments for key segments, providing shareholders with clarity on historical financial issues.

CTM continues to enjoy strong support from lenders, securing both traditional and new financing options to manage its ongoing obligations, including remediation payments to key UK clients. The new funding enhances liquidity and ensures operational stability as the company completes its outstanding statutory reporting.

CTM has appointed Barrenjoey and Morgans Financial Limited to assist with investor engagement during this period of transition.

What did Corporate Travel Management management say?

Managing Director and Group CEO Ana Pedersen said:

These financing arrangements are an important step forward for CTM and provide greater certainty as we complete our outstanding financial reporting. We have made substantial progress resolving the historical matters identified through our reviews, allowing us to move forward with greater clarity and focus for our clients, employees, shareholders and other stakeholders.

What's next for Corporate Travel Management?

The company is focused on completing its FY25 and 1H26 financial statements and expects to provide FY26 results soon after. Meeting the conditions of the new debt facilities—such as issuing audited accounts without a going concern qualification—remains a key priority.

CTM is working to finalise contract negotiations in the UK and address remediation obligations. The new funding arrangements and ongoing lender support put CTM on a firmer financial footing as it looks to rebuild confidence and support stakeholders into FY27 and beyond.
