Viva Leisure (ASX:VVA), the gym and health club operator, is valued by small-cap managers for profitable growth and buybacks. In February 2026, Perennial Partners reported Viva rose 17% after a strong result, with revenue up almost 18% to $116.5 million and underlying profit up 47% to $8.1 million, supported by growth across its health club network. DMX highlighted Viva's pivot from acquisition-led expansion and its buyback program, reflecting management's view that the market undervalues the shares, while Perennial noted it later drifted lower amid low interest in small caps.
