National real estate company The Agency Group Australia (ASX:AU1) (“The Agency” or “the Company”) has
delivered a strong quarterly performance for the three months to 30 September 2025, achieving double-
digit growth across key financial and operational metrics despite persistently tight housing supply and
affordability constraints in several key markets nationally.

Australia’s residential property market, for the most part, maintained steady upward momentum through
the quarter, supported by improved consumer sentiment and low listing volumes across most capitals. The
Agency’s diversified national footprint and scalable business model again proved resilient, capturing
increased market share and higher transaction volumes in key regions.

Revenue increased 19% YoY to $27.4 million, underpinned by continued sales momentum and stable gross
margins. Gross Commission Income (GCI) rose 26% YoY to $37.4 million, reflecting both higher average
property values and strong agent productivity across the network. Current GCI run rate is now $140.5 million

with pipeline remaining strong at approximately $15 million in annualised GCI based on recent recruitments
commencing and contributing to 12.5% EBITDA margin.

With the new agents contributing solid GCI growth, delivering our estimated EBITDA margin plus an
increased performance of our Property Management business we expect a stronger six months for this
financial year than this time last year. This follows on from a full year EBITDA of $1.1m last financial year.

The total gross value of properties sold rose 31% to $2.3 billion, highlighting the sustained demand across
major metropolitan and lifestyle regions. East Coast accounted for $1.4 billion (up 44% YoY from $979
million in Q1FY25) while WA accounted for $872 million (up 15% from $755 million in Q1FY25).

While new listings declined 9% YoY to 1,884 listings nationally, this reflected broader market dynamics
where Western Australia is experiencing very tight supply with one of the lowest number of listings per
capita in history continuing to limit stock availability rather than buyer demand.

The Agency’s national sales team transacted 1,788 properties, up 10% on the prior corresponding period,
demonstrating strong performance despite lower listing volumes. Of this total, East Coast delivered a 24%
YoY increase in transactions to 861 transactions (695: Q1 FY25) while WA accounted for 927 sales (down
from 935 in Q1: FY25).

The number of agents increased to 462, representing a 5% uplift in a single quarter as recruitment and
retention initiatives continued to attract high-performing agents seeking the benefits of The Agency’s direct-
engagement model.

Property management operations also recorded significant growth, with 11,895 properties under
management (5,504 owned and 6,391 under service arrangement) at quarter-end — a 3% YoY increase in
owned properties, and a 32% increase in those under service arrangements which largely benefitted from
our joint venture with MDC as shown in the graph below.

GCI commentary

During Q1FY26, $3.8 million of the GCI was generated from new agents recruited in the last 12 months (Oct
2024 -Sep 2025). This represents almost 50% of the $7.8 million YoY growth in GCI and highlights The
Agency’s focus of appointing only the highest performing agents. The graph below highlights this as well as
the GCI growth generated by existing agents ($3.9m YoY growth).

GCI run-rate

Based on recent recruitment activity and improved markets in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, The
Agency’s targeted GCI run-rate is now approximately $140.5 million, up from the previously announced
targeted run-rate of ~$137 million in GCI (as outlined in August 2025 Investor Update – ASX release
28/08/25).

The company is well on the path to meeting its next milestone target of $150 million on back of a strong
pipeline of $15 million in annualised GCI based on recent recruitments commencing, supported by a solid lift
in buyer inquiry through October, a growing stock pipeline for the Spring–Summer selling season and further
expansion of the agent network in key growth markets.

Additional investment in lead-generation technology, brand marketing, and high-performing team
recruitment continues to underpin management’s confidence in meeting its next milestone of $150 million.

The current addressable GCI market in Australia is $11.8 trillion6 with an addressable property management
commission of ~$3 billion -$4 billion.

Market Conditions

Australia’s residential property market recently hit a record $11.8 trillion in total value, rising $678 billion
over the past year, according to Cotality’s October Housing Chart Pack.7 National dwelling values climbed
2.2% in the September quarter, marking the strongest three-month gain since May 2024, and 4.8% over the
year, signalling renewed momentum despite economic uncertainty. The data highlights the market’s ongoing
resilience amid inflation and rate speculation, with the total value of Australia’s housing stock potentially
reaching $12 trillion by year-end if current growth continues.

Across the capitals during the three-month period, Perth home values were up 4%, underpinned by tight
supply, affordability and strong migration. Sydney and Melbourne (values up 2.1% and 1% respectively
during the period) have seen more uneven conditions, with some inner-city, high-density areas slipping in
value. Meanwhile, Brisbane (values up 3.5% for the period) remained firm, supported by population inflows
and limited stock, while Hobart reported values rising only 0.1% for the quarter.

Commenting on the results, Executive Director Paul Niardone said:

“Our Q1FY26 results demonstrate the underlying strength and scalability of The Agency’s model. Despite a
market constrained by limited listings, we have delivered double-digit growth across revenue, GCI and sales
value, showing the quality and resilience of our team nationwide.

“With the Spring-Summer selling season underway, we’re seeing strong buyer confidence and a continued
shift towards integrated, full-service real estate platforms — an area where The Agency has clear competitive
advantage. The growth in our property management portfolio also reinforces the stability of our earnings
base and the long-term value of our national network.”

Outlook

The Agency remains focused on:

    •   Expanding its national footprint, particularly in emerging states such as Victoria and Queensland,
        where market share continues to grow.

    •   Driving agent recruitment and productivity through its unique direct engagement model and
        national platform.

    •   Maintaining cost discipline to ensure revenue growth continues to translate into improved
        profitability.
