- Serko reported stronger first-half trading, driven by faster growth in completed room nights.
- Management expects the core business to lead FY27 growth while the US initiative remains at an early stage.
- The company will provide a fuller outlook with its interim results on November 16, 2026.
Serko said on October 27, 2026, that first-half trading was stronger than expected, driven by an acceleration in completed room nights. In a guidance update published by BusinessDesk, the company said it expects to revise its FY27 total income guidance of 128 million to 134 million New Zealand dollars modestly higher at its interim results.
Core business drives expected growth
Serko expects the stronger trading momentum to continue into the second half on a seasonally adjusted basis. It also expects total spend to land near the middle of its 132 million to 140 million New Zealand dollar range and forecasts positive free cash flow for the six months ended September 30, 2026, as well as for FY27.
The company said its strategic initiative targeting defined US corporate segments remains in an early stage and is not expected to contribute materially to FY27 total income. Serko now expects its core business to be the main driver of growth, while investors await more detail on the outlook and strategic initiatives.
November results set the next marker
Serko is scheduled to report its first-half FY27 results on November 16, 2026. The release is expected to include the updated income guidance, further commentary on completed room nights and an update on the US strategy.
