Peet upgrades FY26 guidance amid property boom
Property developer Peet (ASX:PPC) upgraded its financial earnings guidance for the year ending June 30, citing a period of robust operating performance and highly resilient buyer demand.
The ASX-listed group now forecasts its FY26 net profit after tax to land between $98 million and $100 million.
This represents a lift from its previous guidance of $86 million to $90 million, positioning the developer for a staggering 67% to 71% growth in earnings compared to the prior financial year.
The positive revision is heavily underpinned by thriving property market conditions across Western Australia and Queensland.
To capitalise on this sustained, elevated demand, Peet has accelerated its residential construction program, successfully fast-tracking products to market ahead of initial schedules.
The agility, paired with consistent sales volumes and strong price growth, has strongly capitalised on the broader macroeconomic landscape.
The group is already targeting ongoing growth into FY27, backed by a solid project pipeline and clear visibility over existing contracts on hand.
Whilst high population growth and a critical undersupply of housing remain incredibly favourable structural tailwinds for the sector, the developer remains cautious.
At the time of reporting, Peet’s share price was $1.72.
