Xamble’s underlying business turns profitable as Q2 revenue rises 34%

Malaysia-based Xamble Group Limited’s underlying business turned profitable in the second quarter of 2026 as revenue rose 34% year on year to A$2 million, marking its strongest quarterly revenue since the company introduced its turnaround plan last year.

“This was a breakout quarter. Revenue rose 34% and our underlying business EBITDA swung to profit — clear evidence that a simpler business and smarter use of automation are paying off. Our new contracts are now earning revenues and the YouthsToday integration is scaling well,” Xamble interim chief executive officer Adrian Tan said in a statement.

“The May 2026 placement strengthened our financial position. With a much larger platform and a growing pipeline of enterprise work, we are building real momentum towards sustained growth and a clear path to profit,” he added.

Xamble is a Malaysia-headquartered influencer marketing and creator-commerce group listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. It provides influencer marketing, social media marketing, performance marketing and social commerce services to brands across seven Southeast Asian markets — Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines and Myanmar.

For the three months ended June 30, Xamble recorded underlying business earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, or EBITDA, of A$243,000, reversing deficits of A$171,000 in the corresponding quarter last year and A$170,000 in the preceding quarter.

The year-on-year turnaround amounted to A$414,000 and came as quarterly revenue increased from A$1.5 million to A$2 million, while business expenses were kept relatively stable.

Gross profit rose 35% to A$750,000, with its gross profit margin improving to about 38% from 37% a year earlier and 35% in the March quarter.

Revenue growth was supported by three commercial contracts worth about A$1.17 million across the technology, education and automotive sectors, which began contributing during the quarter.

Xamble also continued integrating YouthsToday following its acquisition of a 55.6% stake in YToday Sdn Bhd in April.

The integration broadens Xamble’s creator network and expands the range of influencers available to brands across its Southeast Asian markets.

The enlarged Xamble community stood at 21,952 influencers at the end of June, with the group expecting the integration and related operating efficiencies to generate about A$700,000 in annual cost savings.

Activity across its platform also accelerated, with cumulative transactions rising more than sixfold to 160,196 from 25,525 a year earlier.

App downloads increased 50% to 13,571, while the size of its influencer community rose 536%, largely reflecting the addition of YouthsToday’s network.

Xamble ended the quarter with A$1.05 million in cash, up from A$946,000 at the end of March following the completion of a A$667,000 share placement in May.
