RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The loss after tax for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 was $19,519,895 (31 December 2024: profit of $1,018,192).
Dividends
There were no dividend paid during the half year to 31 December 2025 (2024: $1,045,040).
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal activity of the Group during the course of the half-year was the manufacturing of bespoke products and services for the marine, defence and mining industries.
OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Revenue for the first half of the 2026 financial year was $23.4m, down 30% on the prior corresponding period (2025: $33.6m). Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) were down 104% to ($0.2m) (2025: $3.9m) and the loss recorded was a net loss after tax of $19.5m (2025 Profit: $1.0m). Cashflows from operations were $4.0m, up 128% (2025: $1.8m). The Group had cash and cash equivalents of $9.1m at 31 December 2025 (30 June 2025: $0.8m in addition to an overdraft of $2.5m) with undrawn facilities of $8.8m (June 2025: $3.4m).
Propulsion revenue (excluding defence) of $12.9m was down 9% compared to the prior half due to a softening in the propulsion market, in part due to the uncertainty caused by tariffs. Although there was a decrease, revenue remained solid and VEEM maintained good customer relations and worked to broaden its suite of customers to offset the market dynamics in the short term and maximise the increase in the long term when the market resumes growth, by having a larger market share.
The VEEM Extreme range was launched during the half year which provides 18.1% efficiency gains from the propeller and rudder compared to a conventional set up. A contract has been executed with Manly Fast Ferries as the launch customer with deliveries beginning in 2HFY26. Significant enquiries have been received and VEEM is working with a small select group as launch customers to roll out the VEEM Extreme range. The range of customers is expected to broaden over time particularly in the slow boat market given the efficiency gains and also among carbon conscious entities.
Defence sales overall were down $3.6m down 49% to $3.7m largely due to sales to ASC which were down $3.1m compared to the prior period. This was as a result of the delay in receipt of orders which were expected earlier in the half. The orders were received late in the half and VEEM is currently delivering on these orders and will do so over the course of 2HFY26 into FY27 which will accelerate defence revenue.
Work continued to finalise the Hunter Class Frigate Program (HCFP) demonstrator for BAE Systems Australia although taking longer than originally envisioned. Successful completion ensures VEEM qualifies as a supplier to the HCFP. VEEM is one of only two suppliers globally to be able to produce this level of precision.
During the half-year progress was made entering the US defence supply chain including achieving approved supplier status with HII and signing a 9-year MLA with Northrop Grumman for US$33m. Unfortunately this progress was significantly hampered by the longest United States government shut down in modern history from 1 October 2025 to 12 November 2025. Progress continues to accelerate in 2026 with VEEM working towards qualification with several US defence contractors.
Engineering products and services (excluding defence) revenue of $8.3m declined by $0.4m (5%) but remained solid, noting 1HFY25 experienced a significant increase of $1m. Engineering has remained resilient and is expected to remain so going forward with increasing defence revenue utilising any excess capacity.

==> picture [168 x 48] intentionally omitted <==
In December a customer who had purchased 13 gyros didn’t take delivery of 2 as a result of a low level of boat sales on their behalf. In accordance with the sales agreement these 2 sales were reversed and the gyros restocked. There are no other agreements with this option.
As a result, revenue from gyrostabilisers was ($1.5m) for the period. Sales below budget constituted an impairment indicator and an impairment test was conducted, resulting in a non-cash impairment expense of $24.8m in relation to gyro related capitalised development costs ($24.2m) and some obsolete inventory due to launch of the Mark III ($0.6m).
The focus in gyrostabilisers for 2HFY26 will be sale of the Mark III model which the launch of in 1HFY26 contributed to some purchase hesitancy until it is available, starting with the small frames in 2HFY26 followed by the mid and large frames. Increasing reliability of the more robust Mark II models has also resulted in enquiries from existing customers with other boats in their fleet or who are increasing their fleet. Business development continues to be a priority to both increase the number of leads received and also increase the conversion rate. The significant development costs have now been incurred and are winding down post completion and launch of the Mark III.
During the half-year $14m (before costs) was raised by the issue of fully paid ordinary shares with the Miocevich family contributing $1m. Funds received strengthened the balance sheet and provided flexibility allowing the Group to take advantage of growth opportunities in particular in US defence.
The factory extension at Baile Road continued to progress well and is expected to be complete in Q4FY26 in time for the arrival of the CNC machines on order.
VEEM continued to invest in research and development during the period with a number of staff involved in the new VEEM Extreme project, finalisation of the gyrostabiliser Mark III range and projects related to the engineering and propulsion products. As a result of the reduced revenue, cost reduction measures were implemented which resulted in a $3.5m reduction to overheads over the half year on an annualised basis.
Outlook
FY26 is a transition year for VEEM as it navigates through a period of development where costs have been expended in bringing products to market (VEEM Extreme & Gyro Mark III) as well as entering new markets (US Defence) but revenues from these endeavours have yet to ramp up. As this comes through profitability will be enhanced in future periods.
Defence revenue is expected to accelerate in line with the cyclical nature and point in the cycle after receipt of ASC orders late in 1HFY26. This will underpin defence revenue in 2HFY26 which will be supplemented by continuing work with Austal. In parallel successful acceptance of the HCFP demonstrator blades is expected to lead to further defence opportunities. In addition, work continues to enter the US defence supply chain with progress accelerating in 2026 with VEEM working towards qualification with several US defence contractors.
VEEM expects 1HFY26 to have been the trough in propulsion revenue with sales increasing into 2HFY26 and beyond supported by ongoing business development efforts and an improving global outlook. Growth in this area is expected to come from traditional propellers as well as the VEEM Extreme range initially via small select group of launch customers in addition to associated shaftline range and complimentary innovations such as flow-aligned rudders.
VEEM continues to have a robust core foundry and engineering business including its own products, which has remained resilient and is expected to continue to deliver consistent revenue and margins.
While gyrostabiliser activity was subdued in the period, the launch of the Mark III provides an opportunity to increase sales which were subdued by purchase hesitancy awaiting the new model. Sales are expected to be driven through marketing of the new features and in particular reduced through life cost as a result of the elimination of prior required servicing. These marketing and business development efforts are expected to result in additional leads which are anticipated to convert to orders in particular in the workboat and commercial sectors.
SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE DATE
Other than described elsewhere in the half year financial report there are no other significant events subsequent to reporting date.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2025
1. Corporate
The half-year financial report of VEEM Ltd (“the Company”) and the entities it controlled (“the Group”) for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 was authorised for issue on 23 February 2025 in accordance with a resolution of the Directors.
VEEM Ltd is a company limited by shares incorporated and domiciled in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The nature of the operations and principal activities of the Group are described in the Directors’ Report.
2. Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of preparation
These general purpose condensed consolidated financial statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
These half-year financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements and therefore cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and financing and investing activities of the Group as the full financial statements. Accordingly, these half-year financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025 and any public announcements made by VEEM Ltd during the half-year reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
The half-year report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on a historical cost basis.
For the purpose of preparing the half-year financial report, the half-year has to be treated as a discrete reporting period. The accounting policies and methods of computation are the same as those adopted in the most recent annual financial statements except for the impact of the new standards and interpretations described in Note 2(b) below. These accounting policies are consistent with Australian Accounting Standards and with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Where necessary comparatives have been amended to be consistent with current period treatment.
Going Concern
This report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
(b) Adoption of the revised standards
Standards and Interpretations applicable to 31 December 2025
In the half-year ended 31 December 2025, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Group and effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2025 and none of these were considered to have a material impact on the Group. Therefore, no change is necessary to the Group’s accounting policies.
New Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted
The Directors have also reviewed all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted for the half-year ended 31 December 2025. As a result of this review, the Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the Standard and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted by the Group and, therefore, no change is necessary to its accounting policies.
No other new standards, amendments to standards or interpretations are expected to affect the Group 's financial statements.
(c) Significant accounting judgments and key estimates
The preparation of the half-year financial report requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing this half-year financial report, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2025.
An impairment test was conducted on capitalised gyro product development expenditure. Refer Note 10.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the half-year ended 31 December 2025
3. Segment Reporting
Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed by the Board of Directors that are used to make strategic decisions. The entity does not have any operating segments with discrete financial information.
The Board of Directors review internal management reports on a monthly basis that are consistent with the information provided in the statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position and statement of cash flows. As a result, no reconciliation is required because the information as presented is what is used by the Board to make strategic decisions.
The Group has one customer where the revenue was in excess of 10% of the Group’s revenue. This customer generated 11% (December 2024: 1 Customer for 13%) of the Group’s revenue for the half-year.
Although the Group is managed as a single business segment, sales revenue of $23,428,773 (December 2025: $33,559,297) can be broken down into the following sales categories. Propulsion and stabilisation consist of the manufacture of new propellers, shaft lines, gyrostabilisers and marine ride control fins. The sales in this category were $13,294,594 (December 2025: $19,909,177). Defence related sales for the period to December 2025 totalled $3,745,804 (December 2024: $7,320,308) with $1,852,657 (December 2024: $2,342,120) of those sales being both within the defence and propulsion/stabilisation categories. Sales of engineering products and services (non-defence) for the period were $8,241,033 (December 2024: $8,673,455).

Impairment
The Group performs impairment testing of its intangible assets when indicators of impairment exist. At 31 December 2025 it was determined there were indicators of impairment of the gyro capitalised product development costs as a result of the low levels of sales in 1HFY26 compared to budget.
For impairment testing purposes the Group identified the CGU which is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generate cash flows largely independent of cash inflows of other assets or group of assets.
For the half year ended 31 December 2025, the Group applied a value in use (‘VIU’) discounted cash flow methodology to assess the recoverable amount of the capitalised development costs. The inputs to the valuation included 5-year cash flows and a discount rate of 13.9%. The estimated recoverable amount of the capitalised development cost CGU is $24.8m below the carrying value.
The total impairment expense of $24.2m was allocated across the CGU assets excluding any assets where impairment would reduce the carrying amount below the fair value.
The discount rate used in the impairment test reflects current market assessment of the time value of money, risk-adjusted cash flows and other risks specific to the relevant market in which the CGU operates.
The forecast cash flows are derived from management approved profit and cash flow forecasts and do not include restructuring activities that the Group has not yet committed to or possible future investments.
In developing forecast cash flows, management has considered and used a range of judgements and assumptions relating to forecast sales, revenue growth including competitor activity and overhead costs.
An increase in the discount rate of 1% to 14.9% would result in a reduction of VIU of $90k.
As a result of the impairment assessment, $0.6 million in obsolete and unusable stock (Refer note 7) was identified as a result of the launch of the Mark III gyro which has been impaired bringing total impairment to $24.8m.

11. Financial and Risk Management
Foreign exchange risk
The Group’s foreign exchange risk management strategy remains as set out in Note 20 of the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025. The Group operates in multiple currencies and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the USD.
Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the functional currency of the relevant entity.
Foreign exchange forwards
The Group uses foreign currency forwards to hedge its exposure to foreign currency risk. The Group has determined the fair value of the foreign currency forwards by calculating the present value of future cash flows based on observable forward exchange rates at the balance date. As the forward contracts are used to hedge forecast transactions, the Group designates the full change in fair value of the forward contract as the hedging instrument and recognises gains and losses relating to the effective portion of the change in fair value of the entire forward contract in the cash flow hedge reserve within equity.
As at 31 December 2025 there were forward exchange contracts in place for net sales of USD1,748,000 and net purchases of GBP225,000 and EUR240,309 (30 June 2025: Net sale USD3,452,192, EUR480,000 and net purchase GBP425,000) and a derivative liability of $35k.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
