AUCKLAND, New Zealand, [22 October 2026] – Scott Technology Limited (NZX: SCT), the global automation and robotics company, today reported record FY26 revenue of $294.1 million, + 7% YoY and record operating EBITDA of $36.1 million, + 14% YoY, with earnings growth ahead of revenue. Growth was led by Mining and Materials Handling & Logistics, while increased focus on Lifecycle Services lifted Recurring Revenue to $95m, now representing 32.3% of Group revenue.

FY26 was the first full year of Scott’s Destination 2030 growth strategy, as the team put in place the building blocks for future success. The business completed domain market analysis and establishing Key Account Management, Lifecycle Services and Innovation frameworks alongside improved systems capability. With ongoing market activities and embedded capabilities Scott expects FY27 revenue growth of $310–340 million and operating EBITDA growth of $36–41 million.

Momentum was particularly strong in the second half, with EBITDA growth +78% on H1 FY26, which augurs well heading into FY27 and reaffirms the track towards Scott’s ambitious 2030 targets.

“One year into Destination 2030, we have broken through the revenue plateau while making meaningful changes to how Scott operates,” said CEO Mike Christman. “We are getting closer to customers, growing recurring revenue from our installed base and directing innovation towards clearly defined market opportunities. The result is a more customer-led, focused and scalable business.”
