Supplementary information
Acquisition of remaining non-controlled interest of Braavos Corporation Pty Limited
On 1 July 2024, Cuscal Payment Holdings Pty Limited acquired the remaining non-controlled interest in Braavos Corporation Pty Limited (18.44%), through a Deed of Sale and Release with the remaining shareholder. Cuscal Payments Holdings Pty Limited own 100% of the ordinary shares in Braavos Corporation Pty Limited from this date. The acquisition of remaining shares did not have a material impact to Cuscal Limited’s profit from ordinary activities during the period.
Acquisition of Indue
On 22 August 2025, Cuscal Limited announced the acquisition of Indue via a conditional and binding Share Sale and Purchase Agreement that will see Cuscal Limited acquire 100% of Indue’s shares for $75.0 million in cash consideration subject to satisfaction of conditions precedent, including receipt of required regulatory approvals from the ACCC and APRA (the Acquisition).
The Acquisition is anticipated to generate $15 million – $20 million in post-tax annual run rate cost synergies to be fully realised by FY29, driving attractive EPS accretion of over 25% and a Return on Invested Capital (RoIC) of over 20%. Non-recurring costs to execute the integration program are projected to be in the order of $25 million - $30 million after tax with those costs incurred over a three-year period post completion but largely recognised in the first two years post completion, after which Cuscal will realise the full benefit of the Acquisition. The Acquisition is expected to be EPS dilutive on a statutory basis for the first two financial years following completion due to the timing of incurred integration costs.
The Acquisition will be cash funded with the combined entity to retain a strong balance sheet and regulatory capital. The combined entity is anticipated to have a Common Equity Tier 1 capital position of ~18%-19% which is in line with Cuscal’s targets and above regulatory minimums.
Final dividend declaration
In respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2025, the Directors have determined that a final dividend of 5.5 cents per ordinary share shall be paid to all shareholders registered at 29 August 2025. The final dividend will total $10.5 million. The dividend will be fully franked at the 30% corporate income tax rate.
