Fund Manager Summary

The fund managers believe that the outlook for Pureprofile Ltd presents a significant opportunity, particularly following a very strong performance with a $1.6m NPAT, a notable increase from zero. In their opinion, the company’s 30% international revenue growth is likely to continue, positioning it favorably for future gains. With $3.3m of forecast FY25 EBITDA already achieved in the first half, only $1.9m-$2.5m is needed in the second half to meet guidance. Despite Q3 being seasonally weaker, the fund managers express confidence that PPL may upgrade its EBITDA guidance before the end of the year, making it an attractive investment prospect.
