2025 Annual General Meeting - Chair’s Address
On behalf of the Board, I am very pleased to report on the successful implementation
of our growth strategies over the past year. We delivered strong financial results in
FY25 and positive momentum in the business is clearly evident across all of our key
performance metrics.
As Chair for the last two years, I feel very fortunate to lead the Board and to work
closely with the Raiz team as we continue to drive changes needed to position your
company for a successful future.
The Raiz team, is committed to improving the financial wellbeing of all Australians.
We all passionately believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to build a better
financial future, regardless of age, income or experience.
We are actively trying to reshape the way people think about saving and investing
and we are doing everything we can to make building wealth simple and accessible
for everyday Australians.
Last year, we stated that the primary focus of the Board would be to oversee the
successful delivery of the key pillars of our strategy:
• Building brand awareness and strengthening our reputation
• Growing the customer base and delivering a leading customer experience
• Developing new products and services that our customers value
• Building and enhancing the capability of our team to deliver results, and
• Managing the efficient use of capital and preparing for future opportunities
I am happy to confirm that we have successfully executed across all of these
strategies during FY25.
We have undertaken important work to develop our brand strategy to create a
compelling value and brand proposition that appeals to customers across their
investment lifecycle. This strategy will be progressed and rolled out in the year
ahead.
We embedded new generative AI tools into our marketing strategies, which
significantly improved customer conversion and retention rates.
Along with the growing adoption of our higher margin products, we released Raiz
Jars and refreshed Raiz Rewards which each contribute to improving customer
engagement and retention.
A major milestone for the business, was the strategic partnership with State Street
Investment Management, the fourth largest asset manager in the world. We were
very happy to welcome State Street onto our register, which demonstrates their
belief in the growth potential of our business model over the years ahead.
Importantly, all these initiatives taken together, grew Active Customers by 7% year
on year, delivered improved profitability and positive underlying EBITDA of $2.8m
These consistently improving results have seen our share price lift and continue with
momentum into FY26.
The foundations of the business are strong, we recently published guidance for the
first time and are on track to deliver FY26 UEBITDA in the range of $4.5 to $5.5m
and we continue to look for additional organic growth strategies and M&A
opportunities.
Right now, we are focused on scaling the business and proving the operating
leverage in our model.
Our strategic priorities for FY26 are to build and deliver:
• Customer advocacy by delivering exceptional customer experiences;
• Innovative products that customers use and value across their lifecycle, and
• Partnerships that deliver shared value and scale.
Our strategic priorities are enabled by smart data and scalable technology, effective
capital allocation and a capable and empowered team. Raiz is proud to have
delivered strong financial results and improved outcomes for our shareholders. The
start to FY26 has continued this trend and we look forward to the coming year with
confidence and commitment.
I would like to acknowledge my fellow directors for their guidance and support in
building positive momentum and improved performance and I thank them for the
contribution they have made throughout 2025.
On behalf of the Board, I would also like to note our appreciation for the hard work
and determination of our CEO and Managing Director, Brendan Malone, and his
team, who have worked tirelessly to implement the initiatives outlined above to drive
top line growth and improved profitability.
We would like to thank the shareholders who have been with us on this journey and
also our newer shareholders who have joined us in the past year. We are confident
that the best years are ahead of us
2025 Annual General Meeting - CEO’s Address
It is very rewarding to present at this year’s AGM and to share the significant
progress that we have made across all aspects of the business in the 12 months. In
so many ways, it has been an extremely successful and positive year.
Overview of FY25 Results
In FY25, we benefited from the singular focus on our Australian operations, and this
delivered positive results for our shareholders.
Total revenue was up 15% to $24m, Active Customers were up 7% to nearly
330,000 and our Average Revenue Per User or ARPU was up 9% to just over $75.
Our Funds Under Management or FUM, was up 30% to $1.8 billion with net inflows
of $210m. And we significantly improved our profitability with underlying EBITDA up
147% to $2.8m.
All the core metrics of the business tracked in the right direction, and this has
continued into the first half of FY26.
Product Innovation
The effective implementation of our product development roadmap has been a major
highlight. We continued to expand the investment options in our premium Raiz Plus
product, we integrated the Raiz Plus product into our Super offering, we refreshed
our Raiz Rewards program and launched Raiz Jars in January, which provides
functionality for our customers to set and manage separate savings goals.
We listen to our customers. We develop the products that make it easy for our
customers to build not only financial confidence but wealth.
This relentless product innovation has been recognised by the fintech industry, both
in Australia and globally. We were pleased to be awarded the winner of the Canstar
Innovation Excellence Awards for Raiz Plus portfolios, a finalist in Fintech Australia’s
Finnies Awards for Excellence in Wealth Management and we were also named one
of CNBC World’s Top Fintech Companies in 2025.
Improved marketing strategies
One of the big improvements in FY25 was in the execution of our marketing
strategies. We accelerated the development of our data analytics capabilities and
adopted AI tools to generate deeper insights. These advances enabled us to deliver
highly targeted and personalised marketing messages, ensuring that customers
receive information tailored to their individual goals and behaviours.
We are focused on two key strategies for customer growth: winning new customers
and also the re-engagement with inactive customers together with the cross-
promotion of our broader product offering within our existing ecosystem.
Another key change in our marketing approach in FY25 was the increased focus on
strategic partnerships, to build value and minimise the overall cost of customer
acquisition. The Raiz Your Game podcast has been very popular and we are working
closely with the Australian Shareholders Association and other financial literacy
communities to promote brand awareness and education. This targeted approach is
working.
Also, by improving our products and our marketing, we were able to achieve a really
important shift in behaviour in our customer base as they transition from a
transaction-based savings approach to a longer-term wealth focus.
Maximising customer lifetime value
We are building a product roadmap with products that support customers at each
stage of their life journey, from Raiz Kids, through Gen Z and Millennials, and for
Gen X and Boomers in retirement in order to maximise the customer lifetime value.
Our customers are increasingly adopting multiple Raiz products, continuing to
deposit funds through the ups and downs of the market cycle, growing their
investments and staying on our platform for longer.
State Street
In August 2024, we announced a strategic partnership with State Street Investment
Management, the asset management business of State Street Corporation (NYSE:
STT), one of the world’s leading providers of financial services. The relationship
provides opportunities for new product development from ETFs through to
superannuation retirement portfolios.
We launched a joint campaign in September to broaden market awareness, and we
continue to collaborate on new product development including retail and retirement
investment products and consumer data analytics.
FY26 - Raiz Lite and Fee Increase
Our commitment to product innovation has continued into FY26.
On 1 August, we launched a major new product offering and enhancements to our
platform. Raiz Lite is a new low-cost entry plan designed specifically for first time
investors and Raiz Academy is a new online education platform designed to boost
financial literacy and consumer confidence, empowering Australians with practical
financial knowledge.
In addition, a revised fee schedule took effect on 1 August 2025, increasing the
monthly maintenance fee by $1 per month for both Regular and Plus plans.
In our Q1 business update, released in October, we reported that positive
momentum continues with the new contemporary plan structure and fee increase,
experiencing lower churn compared to previous fee increases. Pleasingly, the early
data indicates the new Raiz Lite plan is acting as an effective entry point for higher-
value offerings, with a higher proportion of new customers selecting the premium
Raiz Plus option as their first choice.
Outlook
In FY26, we expect to see the benefits of operating leverage in our model as our top
line grows faster than our cost base. Raiz is leading from the front due to our inhouse
technology and innovative capabilities coupled with our direct relationships with our
customer. We are continuing to innovate and remain focused on providing our
customers with the best products to help them build wealth throughout their lifetime.
I would like to thank the Raiz team for an outstanding year of delivery and execution.
We strengthened our management team with new additions in Risk and Product and
the team is extremely energised and motivated to deliver for our customers.
Thank you to the Board for your ongoing support and to our shareholders, both
existing and the new shareholders that are joining us for the first time this year.
Thanks for joining us on this exciting journey to help everyday Australians build
financial confidence and wealth.
