Advanced Braking Technology Hits Record $6.2m Quarterly Revenue with Strong Global Growth

Record Revenue and Profit Growth

Advanced Braking Technology Ltd (ASX:ABV) closed FY26 with a bang, delivering a record $6.2 million in product sales revenue for Q4, marking a 10.7% increase on the prior corresponding period. This pushed the company’s unaudited full-year revenue to $23.5 million, a 22.7% rise from FY25’s $19.1 million. The quarterly normalised net profit before tax (NPBT) surged 81% to $652,000, underpinned by operating discipline and a robust product mix that lifted gross margins to a record 50.7%, up from 47.4% last year.

Managing Director Andrew Booth highlighted that the growth reflects sustained demand for ABT’s safety-critical braking solutions across domestic and international mining sectors. The company’s scalable operating model and focus on aftermarket revenue streams continue to support profitability improvements.

Advancements in Autonomous Braking Technology

ABT made significant strides in its innovation pipeline, particularly with BRAKEiQ, its autonomous braking solution designed to integrate with Collision Avoidance Systems and existing mining fleets. The company achieved eight key technical and customer engagement milestones during the quarter, advancing integration work and expanding partnerships with leading product development system (PDS) original equipment manufacturers.

This progress signals growing interest in autonomous and fail-safe vehicle safety technologies, reinforcing ABT’s position as a technology-driven OEM addressing critical mining safety challenges globally.

Expanding International Footprint

International expansion gathered pace, with increased engagement across North America, Africa, and Asia-Pacific. ABT strengthened ties with distribution and strategic partners, broadening its reach in both underground and surface mining applications. The growing global installed base of ABT safety systems is driving recurring aftermarket revenue through consumables and refurbishment, creating a solid foundation for future earnings growth and higher customer retention barriers.

This international momentum aligns with the positive outlook for mining safety technology demand worldwide, as ABT diversifies its product portfolio and deepens customer-driven innovation.

Financial Position and Supply Chain Resilience

ABT’s cash balance improved to $5.63 million at 30 June 2026, nearly doubling from $2.9 million a year earlier, supported by positive operating cash flows and disciplined cost management. The company maintains an unsecured loan facility of $310,000 with Momentum Premium Funding Ltd for insurance premium financing at a flat interest rate of 3.98%.

While monitoring geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and potential disruptions to global shipping and supply chains, ABT reports no material impact to date. Management remains focused on supply chain resilience and customer engagement to mitigate risks associated with market uncertainties.
