Executive Chairman Jack Cowin said:
These results reflect deliberate decisions taken as part of our reset to strengthen the foundations of the business, prioritising an increase in franchise partner profitability.
We reduced reliance on discounting during the half. Volumes moderated, as expected, but unit economics improved. That was a conscious trade-off to build a stronger system.

The underlying NPAT rose 2% to US$114.5 million, but the statutory NPAT plummeted 36% to US$68.1 million.
The company said this was due to increased intangible amortisation and interest expenses related to the consolidation of e2open.

As a result, the company expects to cut 2,000 jobs over FY26 and FY27.
