RESULTS COMMENTARY:
Super Group, a leading logistics and mobility business, reported an exceptional financial performance for the 2026 financial year, with significant growth in earnings despite a backdrop of economic uncertainty and geopolitical disruption. The Group continued to strengthen its competitive position, advance its strategic priorities and maintain a disciplined focus on execution and value creation.
Revenue from continuing operations increased by 6.2% to R45.83 billion, driven by solid growth in the Supply Chain and Dealership operations, together with four months of revenue from the newly acquired DIG operations. EBITDA increased by 15.5% to R4.16 billion, while operating profit rose by 26.6% to R2.37 billion. Headline earnings per share from continuing operations increased by 36.0% to 334.6 cents, while earnings per share increased by 30.8% to 336.0 cents.
STRONG PERFORMANCE ACROSS THE PORTFOLIO
The Group’s diversified portfolio delivered encouraging results across its key markets and businesses, supported by continued demand in its industrial and consumer-focused supply chain operations and a solid performance from Fleet Solutions. Spain-based distribution business Ader delivered a stellar performance, supported by strong demand across its home delivery, commercial and logistics customer segments.
The Dealerships division performed well. In South Africa, new vehicle volumes outperformed the NAAMSA dealer market, while continued demand for Asian brands supported the addition of 11 new dealerships during the year. These included the Chery, Geely, GWM, Jetour, Lepas, Omoda, Jaecoo, Mahindra and Tata brands. The Group now includes 31 operations representing emerging Chinese and Indian brands.
In the UK, performance improved substantially, with new vehicle sales significantly outperforming growth in the national passenger vehicle market. Highlighting the growing traction of Chinese brands in this market, Omoda and Jaecoo enjoyed considerable sales growth in the UK passenger market, achieving a combined market share of 4.6% in the first half of the 2026 calendar year, compared to 1.5% in the prior comparable period. Chinese brands accounted for 24.9% of Super Group’s total UK new vehicle sales, up from 15.7% in the prior year.
POSITIONED FOR FURTHER GROWTH
Super Group enters the new financial year with a clear focus on growing earnings. The onboarding of new customers and expansion of service offerings position the Consumer Supply Chain and Fleet Lease businesses for further growth.
In South Africa, the Dealerships business is expected to maintain its momentum, supported by continued expansion of the Group’s portfolio of Chinese and Indian brands. In the UK, further earnings improvement is expected to be supported by sales growth from brands including Omoda, Jaecoo and Chery.
“While remaining mindful of the volatile operating environment, we continue to see meaningful opportunities for growth across the Group. Our priorities remain clear: improve earnings, strengthen operational performance and selectively invest in opportunities capable of delivering satisfactory returns. Super Group continues to build scalable, high-performing businesses across all three divisions, with a clear focus on sustainable long-term growth.”
